Abstract
The Alere Detect test is a novel device detecting HIV RNA in clinical samples, and differentiating HIV-1 and HIV-2 with a high level of specificity. It has the potential for use as a rapid HIV-2 NAT-based diagnosis tool in resource-limited settings and to confirm HIV-2 infection for the CDC 4th generation HIV-1/2 diagnostic algorithm.
