Test Method & Technology

Lateral flow immunoassays in WHO PQ-listed kits ensure precise detection of syphilis antibodies.

Antibody Specificity (IgM & IgG)

Detection of IgM for early infection and IgG for chronic infections critically impacts test accuracy.

Sample Collection Technique

Proper blood collection and application to the test device are essential to prevent false results.

Adherence to Test Protocol

Strict compliance with instructions maintains sensitivity and minimizes user-induced errors.

Timing Relative to Exposure

Testing too soon after exposure may yield false-negative results, affecting the reliability of the test.
