On the HIV Rapid Screening Test

This kit is used in the antenatal clinic actually. LOL. But I'm not sure if the Pink Triangle uses the same kit, but as far as I'm concerned, I think they should be the same; using the same principle I mean. Only came to understand the theory when I did the test myself as what I posted yesterday. Hope the pictures helped explain it.



Now that's done, perhaps I should go test my cholesterol. :P

t means 'test' but personally, i think it as 'trouble'

Mr.D said...

Great inovation...haha...

doc said...

i agree with ismail. but if you're an incurable (pun intended) pessimist, T could mean "terminal."

when you are infected with the HIV virus, your body will produce the t cel antibodies thus the T line will form to inform you that your body has the t antibodies. This line can be very faint or very thin.
