When any virus gets into a person's blood, the body reacts by producing specific antibodies. Tests are available which can identify AIDS virus antibodies in the blood. An antibody test is not called "positive" until the test is repeated and confirmed. (AIDS, Ministry of Health, Ontario, February, 1986) 1, record 3, English, - AIDS%20virus%20antibody%20test

Antibody screening techniques must be rapid because desirable hybrids have to be identified quickly. They must also be sensitive so as to give a strong positive result for about 1 mu g antibody/ml. Antibodies are frequently detected by their binding to the particular antigen followed by detection with a fluorescent,125I-, or an enzyme-labelled second antibody to mouse immunoglobulin. 2, record 4, English, - antibody%20screening
