HIV and syphilis rapid test: CE-marked INSTI Multiplex for clinics and NGOs
When your organisation needs an HIV test or rapid HIV test for use in clinics, laboratories or emergency relief projects, choosing a reliable, CE-marked product is crucial. The INSTI Multiplex HIV-1/HIV-2/syphilis antibody test is designed for professional use and provides results in under one minute. The test combines detection of HIV-1, HIV-2 and syphilis antibodies in a single assay and is suitable for point-of-care use.
What is an HIV rapid test?
A rapid HIV test is an HIV antibody test that detects antibodies to HIV in blood, serum or plasma. INSTI Multiplex uses recombinant proteins (HIV-1 gp41 and HIV-2 gp36) to ensure high sensitivity and specificity. The test is an HIV screening test that delivers reliable results in under one minute, without the need for complicated laboratory procedures.
Multiplex test: HIV-1, HIV-2, and syphilis in a single analysis
The multiplex format makes it possible to test for HIV-1/HIV-2 and syphilis at the same time. This reduces time consumption and increases efficiency, especially in clinical settings and emergency relief efforts. INSTI Multiplex functions as both a rapid syphilis test and an HIV combination test (HIV and syphilis) in a single device. Results are read visually via clear blue dots on the membrane.
Why choose a CE-marked HIV test?
A CE-marked HIV test guarantees that the product meets the EU’s standards for safety and performance. INSTI Multiplex is approved for professional use as a point-of-care HIV test, making it ideal for clinics, laboratories, medical practices and emergency situations. The test is not approved for self-testing and must be performed by trained healthcare professionals.
Use in clinics, NGOs and emergency relief
NGO HIV testing projects and clinical initiatives require fast and reliable solutions. INSTI Multiplex is suitable for screening in areas with limited laboratory facilities and is already used in humanitarian operations worldwide. The simple test procedure and rapid turnaround time make it possible to test many people efficiently under time pressure.
