Clinical Information

Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is endemic throughout the world. The infection is spread primarily through percutaneous contact with infected blood products (eg, blood transfusion, sharing of needles by intravenous drug addicts). The virus is also found in various human body fluids, and it is known to be spread through oral and genital contact. HBV can be transmitted from mother to child during delivery through contact with blood and vaginal secretions, but it is not commonly transmitted transplacentally.
Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is the first serologic marker appearing in the serum at 6 to 16 weeks following exposure to HBV. In acute infection, HBsAg usually disappears in 1 to 2 months after the onset of symptoms. Persistence of HBsAg for more than 6 months in duration indicates development of either a chronic carrier state or chronic HBV infection.

Interpretation

Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
A reactive screen result (signal to cutoff ratio; S/Co ratio > or =1.0 but < or =100.0) confirmed as positive by hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) confirmatory test (see Method Description) or a positive screen result (S/Co ratio >100.0) is indicative of acute or chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, or chronic HBV carrier state.
Specimens with reactive screen results but negative (ie, not confirmed) HBsAg confirmatory test results are likely to contain cross-reactive antibodies from other infectious or immunologic disorders. Repeat testing at a later date is recommended if clinically indicated.
Confirmed presence of HBsAg is frequently associated with HBV replication and infectivity, especially when accompanied by the presence of hepatitis B e-antigen or detectable HBV DNA.

Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) screen results (ie, signal-to-cutoff ratio >100.0) without need for confirmation testing should be interpreted in conjunction with test results of other hepatitis B virus (HBV) serologic markers (eg, hepatitis B surface antibody, hepatitis B core antibody [anti-HBc] total, and anti-HBc IgM).
Positive HBsAg test results should be reported by the health care provider to the State Department of Health, as required by law in some states.
Individuals, especially neonates and children, who recently received hepatitis B vaccination may have transient positive HBsAg test results because of the large dose of HBsAg used in the vaccine relative to the individual's body mass.
Performance characteristics have not been established for the following specimen characteristics:
-Grossly icteric (total bilirubin level of >20 mg/dL)
-Grossly lipemic (triolein level of >3000 mg/dL)
-Grossly hemolyzed (hemoglobin level of >61 mg/dL)
-Containing particulate matter
-Cadaveric specimens

Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
Specimens are first tested by the VITROS hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) assay. With modification to the assay manufacturer's instructions for use, specimens yielding signal to cutoff ratio (S/Co) > or =1.0 but < or =100.0 will be confirmed by the VITROS HBsAg Confirmatory assay. Specimens that are strongly positive (ie, S/Co ratio >100.0) do not require this confirmation.
HBsAg:
This immunometric technique involves the simultaneous reaction of HBsAg in the sample with mouse monoclonal HBs antibody (anti-HBs) coated onto the wells and a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled mouse monoclonal anti-HBs in the conjugate. Unbound conjugate is removed by washing. A reagent containing luminogenic substrates (a luminol derivative and a peracid salt) and an electron transfer agent is added to the wells. The HRP in the bound conjugate catalyzes the oxidation of the luminol derivative, producing light. The electron transfer agent increases the level and duration of the light produced. The light signals are read by the VITROS Immunodiagnostic System. The amount of HRP conjugate bound is indicative of the level of HBsAg present in the sample.(Package insert: VITROS HBsAg assay, GEM1201, version 13.1. Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc; 09/06/2019)
HBsAg Confirmation:
The VITROS HBsAg Confirmatory Kit uses the principle of specific antibody neutralization to confirm the presence of HBsAg. The sample is tested twice: one aliquot is incubated with a neutralizing reagent containing high titer anti-HBs (the confirmatory antibody); the second aliquot is incubated with a non-neutralizing control reagent (the sample diluent). The confirmatory antibody binds to HBsAg in the sample inhibiting its reaction in the VITROS HBsAg assay. This leads to a reduced result compared to that for the non-neutralized control sample.(Package insert: VITROS HBsAg Confirmation assay, GEM4201, version 13.1.
