This document contains the lab results for a 28-year old male named M. Ayub. The results show that he tested non-reactive for both HBsAg and Anti-HCV. The interpretations note that these are screening tests and the results should be interpreted along with the patient's history and may need to be confirmed with other tests to avoid false positives or negatives.

Result should be interpreted in conjunction with patient history and other hepatitis markers for diagnosis of acute and chronic infection. Result should be verified by other confirmatory test. False positive result may be found due to presence of serum heterophilic antibodies, cross-reactivity with other viral infections or with immunologic disorders. Transient positive result may be found in subject with HBV recent vaccination.

NOTE : The test is analyzed by chemiluminescence immunoassay.
ANTI-HCV Non - Reactive
Interpretation(s) :This is a screening test.
Results must be confirmed by HCV RNA or other confirmatory testing to exclude possibility of false negative or false positive result. Reference :Center of disease control and prevention.
