FirstVue™ HBsAg test provides easy, fast and accurate diagnosis and can be relied upon and deployed almost anywhere in the world.

** Walter Reed Hospital & Department of Defense concluded that the FirstVue™ rapid test was the preferred test in all phases of this evaluation. The FirstVue™ HBSAG Test was Found to Have Higher Sensitivity and Specificity than Other Rapid HBSAG Tests. (Read in PR News) (Review DataSheet)

The FirstVue™ HBsAg Test cassette is a rapid immunochromatographic assay designed for qualitative determination of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in whole blood, serum or plasma.

One of the first viral markers to appear in blood following infection with HBV is hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). This marker is usually detectable 2-8 weeks before biochemical evidence of liver dysfunction or the onset of jaundice and usually persists for several weeks. A proportion of individuals who are infected with HBV do not resolve the acute infection and become chronically infected. High levels of HBsAg are usually detected in their blood. Positive results in tests for HBsAg are therefore indicative of acute active-resolving infection or of a chronic-persistent state of infection.
