Laboratory Testing for Hepatitis A and E
Assay Methods for HAV Serologic Markers

September 2008
The current laboratory methods for Hepatitis A serologic marker testing are listed here. There are enzyme immunoassays EIA, such as DiaSorin the manual assay or and their automated ETI-MAX instrumentation. The microparticle EIA such as the Abbott AxSYM or IMx method, or the chemiluminescence immunoassays such as those with the Ortho Vitros ECi/ECiQ, Siemens ADVIA Centaur, Siemens Immulite 2000, as well as the Abbott Architect system.
