Hepatitis A (HAV) PCR kit

Detection of HAV RNA by PCR method has significant advantages as related to ELISA and biochemical tests at detection of the virus in blood of contact persons as RNA of the hepatitis A virus manifests itself in the blood on the third week from the moment of contamination and is detected at the average within 20 days after appearance of the disease symptoms. Thus, RNA is the first diagnostic marker detected in the patient blood, occurs earlier than a HAV IgM and gives no falsely negative reactions. This test is a Real Time Amplification test for detection of Hepatitis A virus (HAV).
