DAVIH AC p24 kit for detecting anti p24 antibodies of HIV-1, worked out by the National Laboratory of Reference of AIDS (Labor-1, Cuba) is assessed and results are compared to those of the Western Blot technique (DAVIH-Blot, Labor-1, Cuba). 191 samples from HIV positive patients at various stages of the disease were analyzed. 96% sensitivity; 100% specificity and 96.3% coincidence were found in both techniques. The anti p-24 ELISA-DAVIH system is a good alternative for the follow-up of HIV positive patients.
