The purpose of the work was to study the ability of test systems DIA-HIV 1/2 and DIA-HIV-Ag/Ab produced by PJSC “SPC “Diaproph-Med” to detect HIV infection. Reference blood serum of HIV-positive patients was tested using  immunoassay analysis. It was shown that early detection of HIV infection is more effective using test kits of the fourth generation, which should be used for primary screening for HIV, and third-generation test systems should be used to confirm the positive results of primary analysis.

Key words: ELISA, early diagnosis of HIV, enzyme immunoassay test systems.
