Discontinue HIV-1 IFA Confirmatory Test

14 Jun, 2019 | Return|

CTS received notification from Sanochemia Pharmazeutika AG of their intent to immediately discontinue production of Fluorognost HIV-1 IFA test kits routinely used for confirmation of HIV-1 antibody-reactive donations. Based on our current testing volume, CTS has sufficient HIV-1 IFA reagent inventory to continue performing this confirmatory test through the end of August 2019.
