HBeAb ELISA test Background Information:
Acute phase viral infection is directly related to the presence of e-antigen. Acute hepatitis B recovery after treatment involves the first serological marker, HBeAg negative. It would be replaced by the corresponding antibody (anti-HBe). When using HBeAg as a specific marker of infection, the actual presence of anti-HBe antibody in blood is then considered an indication of recovery from infection. Even if HBeAg is not detectable, acute HBV infections can occur and this usually indicates presence of HBV mutants. Any phase of infection in these cases may signal high, low, or non-detectable quantities of HBV. Having an HBeAb ELISA for these patients is important in order to monitor the progress of HBV.




HBeAb ELISA test Principle:
The HBeAb ELISA Test kit uses the principle of solid phase, one-step incubation, competitive ELISA. If anti-HBe is present, it competes with purified anti-HBe conjugated to horseradish peroxidase for a set number of purified HBeAg pre-coated in the wells.



Most infectious disease ELISA kits follow a similar method. See the HCV Ab ELISA Kit product insert for details on preparation, procedures, quality control, and test result interpretation.
