Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and its variations for simultaneous detection of antibodies against two or more antigens of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and determination of approximate time (duration) post HIV infection, thereby confirming the infection, and determination of recency of an HIV infection. The number of individuals with recently infected HIV in a given period may be further used to estimate incidence of HIV in a population.
