A member asked:
Is hepatitis b (hbsag) value 0.86 s/co supposed to be reactive within 1 month? the reference range is <0.90.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably negative...: With this type of test (ELISA), the results is negative for any value below the cut-off number, and this result is technically negative. However, if you were tested because of a known exposure, it is possible the test is becoming positive. Speak with your doctor or clinic about repeating it after another 1-2 weeks. If exposed you also should have had other tests like HBsAb and HBcAb.
