Abstract
|
BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B viruses (HBV) harboring mutations in the a-determinant of the Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) are associated with reduced reactivity of HBsAg assays. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of three HBsAg point-of-care tests for the detection of HBsAg of viruses harboring HBsAg mutations. STUDY DESIGN: A selection of 50 clinical plasma samples containing HBV with HBsAg mutations was used to evaluate the performance of three HBsAg point-of-care tests (Vikia((R)), bioMerieux, Marcy-L'Etoile, France. Alere Determine HBsAg, Iverness Biomedical Innovations, Koln, Germany. Quick Profile, LumiQuick Diagnostics, California, USA) and compared to the ARCHITECT HBsAg Qualitative((R)) assay (Abbott Laboratories, Sligo, Ireland). RESULTS: The sensitivity of the point-of-care tests ranged from 98% to 100%. The only false-negative result occurred using the Quick Profile assay with a virus harboring a D144A mutation. CONCLUSIONS: The evaluated point-of-care tests revealed an excellent sensitivity in detecting HBV samples harboring HBsAg mutations.
