  • Methodology:
    Chemiluminescent Immunoassay (ChLIA)
    Abbott PRISM® HTLV-I/HTLV-II, Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Types I and II
  • Use:
    The ABBOTT PRISM HTLV-I/HTLV-II assay is an in vitro chemiluminescent immunoassay (ChLIA) for the qualitative detection of antibodies to human T-lymphotropic virus Type I and/or human T-lymphotropic virus Type II (anti-HTLV-I/HTLV-II) in human serum and plasma specimens. The ABBOTT PRISM HTLV-I/HTLV-II (ChLIA) is intended to screen individual human donors, including volunteer donors of whole blood and blood components, and other living donors for the presence of anti-HTLV-I/HTLV-II. It is also intended for use in testing blood and plasma specimens to screen organ donors when specimens are obtained while the donor’s heart is still beating. It is not intended for use on cord blood specimens.
