Several specimens had to be diluted prior to testing due to insufficient volume, dilution factors are indicated in brackets. In donor #11, serological screening was performed in another laboratory, merely HCV serology and ID-NAT was requested.
dHIV, dHCV and dHBV = Discriminatory tests for HIV-1/2, HCV and HBV, respectively (tests provided with the Ultrio Elite Kit); ND = not done.
