Am working in Dubai and will be having a medical test soon. MOH Dubai is checking following lab test: 1) Prevalence of malaria: by Giemsa stained thick blood films 2) Hepatitis B is diagnosed by detecting the surface antigen ( HbsAg ) and hepatitis C by detecting antibodies to HCV (HCVAb) using ommercial enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kits from ABBOTT company, Germany. The presence of HBsAg was confirmed by a seroneutralization test of the same company. For HCVAb screening, all specimens with absorbance value equal to or greater than the cut-off value were rechecked and considere das reactive only if both ELISA results were positive.Reactive sera were confirmed by Liatek from rganon. Antibodies to HIV were also tested in Virology Laboratory using commercial enzyme mmunoassay (ELISA) kits of ABBOTT, 3rd genration. All positive samples are confirmed by estern blot analysis from Bio-Rad test.
