The newly developed immunoblot assay, RlBA SIA (recombinant and synthetic polypeptide immunoblot assay), Chiron, Calif., was compared with the commercially available second generation recombinant immunoblot assay (RIBA-2) for the detection of antibody to hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV). The two immunob
## Abstract The low specificity of screening ELISAs for antibodies to hepatitis C virus in blood donors has called for confirmatory tests. Two types of supplementary antibody assays are available, recombinant immunoblot assays (RIBA‐1 and RIBA‐2) and an antibody consumption test referred to as a ne
