There is only one test that can give the accurate results for HIV. The only test that can do this would be the Elisa test.

When testing for HIV what tests produce more accurate results than the ELISA test?
Western Blot Test: is a blood test that produces more accurate results than the ELISA test.
When testing for HIV what accurate more results than ELISA test?
its the Western blot test
When testing for HIV a test produces more accurate results than the ELISA test?
The Western blot test is often used as a confirmatory test after a positive ELISA result for HIV. It is more specific but can also produce false positive results due to its high sensitivity. Consulting a healthcare provider for interpretation of test results and appropriate follow-up is important in HIV testing.
Is a kite an accurate or inaccurate way to measure distance?
A kite can be an accurate way to measure distance if used with the proper techniques such as measuring the angle of the kite string and using trigonometry to calculate the distance. However, factors such as wind speed and height of the kite can affect the accuracy of the measurement.
What is the clinical benefit of completing the Western Blot as a confirmatory test for the ELISA test?
it is more accurate
How important is it to have accurate measurements in science?
Very, the more accurate the the measurements the more accurate the results, thus furthering more accurate tests down the road based on said results. The more tests you do on bad results the further off the results get with every test you do. Changing the independent of the test with bad measurements would void a result.
How will repeating an experiment make the results more accurate?
because then you realize what you did wrong and fix it.
Why was it important for mendel study such a large sample of pea plants?
(Apex Learning) A higher sample size gives more accurate results.
What blood tests are used to test for HIV?
There are several tests that are used to confirm the prescence of HIV. In medical settings, the most common tests being used today are rapid tests such as Oraquick which use a sample from the mouth to detect the prescence of antibodies to the HIV virus. Oraquick produces results in 20 minutes. If Oraquick produces a positive result, a blood sample is usually taken and sent to a laboratory for a confirmatory test. In the laboratory, the ELISA test will be used. If the ELISA is also positive, another test called Western Blot will be used to confirm the results of ELISA.
Why is it more useful to present results as a line graph rather than a table?
Its more accurate
Who produces better firearms Beretta or Smith and Wesson?
The Beretta is more accurate but Smith and Wesley is more powerful
Why is it important to do an experiment more than one time?
We retest our experiments to insure accurate results and to compare with our original results.
