The main purpose in the diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is to rapidly and accurately identify people with HIV infection. It is recommended that samples that are repeatedly reactive should be verified/supported according to the classical algorithms of international and national guidelines. The recombinant "line immunoassay test (LIA)", which has been used for many years, is studied with the accumulated samples to be cost and labor-effective. In this study, the supplemental recombinant HIV 1/2 LIA (INNO-LIA®, Fujirebio, Ghent, Belgium) used to confirm and differentiate the diagnosis of HIV-1 and HIV-2 infections, and an immunochromatographic supplemental test (Geenius™ (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Marnes-la-Coquette, France) which can provide faster results were compared. One hundred fifty serum samples sent to Ege University Faculty of Medicine Hospital Medical Virology Laboratory with anti-HIV 1/2 and p24 antigen positive and indeterminant results and three HIV-1 positive external quality control samples were included in the study. Samples were tested both with the Geenius™ HIV 1/2 (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Marnes-la-Coquette, France) and recombinant HIV 1/2 LIA (INNO-LIA®, Fujirebio, Ghent, Belgium). HIV 1 viral load was evaluated by using Abbott real-time HIV-1 test in Abbott m200sp system (Abbott Molecular, Wiesbaden, Germany) in plasma samples. In both assays, the results were consistent in 147 samples (96.08%). Six samples that have discordant results were as follows: one sample was LIA HIV-1 positive and Geenius indeterminate, two samples were LIA indeterminant and Geenius HIV-1 positive, and in three samples, LIA was indeterminate and Geenius negative. In two EIA reactive samples (2/97, 2.06%) and three EIA negative samples (3/53, 5.66%) LIA results were indeterminant. Geenius test, on the other hand, correctly identified HIV positive and negative samples. The immunochromatographic test could be used in the diagnostic algorithm of HIV infection, due to its short application time, not being labor intensive, its ability to distinguish HIV-1/2, its high sensitivity/specificity compared to LIA, and the compliance with LIA. However, it should be noted that in acute HIV infection, all analytical antibody tests, become reactive later than the fourth generation enzyme immunoassays.
