Hepatitis B surface Ab (HBsAb) rapid tests are used to test human blood for the presence
of HBsAb. HBsAb appears in the blood shortly after the disappearance of HBsAg. This
term was created for but not limited in use to, the iCare One Step HBsAb test kit
which uses the sandwich principle, a solid phase colloidal gold enhanced immunoassay,
to detect HBsAb in whole blood, serum, or plasma. Testing can be performed in approximately
20 minutes.;
