dear pnnc

The above mentioned are TESTS for HIV 1/2.

Chemiluminesence - is a method like ELISA to detect the Virus.This kind of method is being used by various labs now all over the world.

Abbott - Is a manufacturing company which designs testing kits for various kinds of tests.

MEIA - http://www.abbottdiagnostics.com/your_health/thyroid/products/chemimxft3.cfm

Hope the above will suffice ur query.

One more things choose better lines for ur Subject/Title.They do not match.

In ur title u seem to be telling people that  the tests that u have mentioned DO NOT catch the hiv virus. which is not true...

where are u from?
u can ask about the mehods and test to ur local GP too.
