It is a IVth generation duo test combining both the anti-body test and P24 antigen test. It is a good indicator around the 2 week mark to check for HIV infection. Anti-body test checks for anti-bodies which are produced by the body against HIV virus and the P24 checks for a special chemical produced in body before anti-bodies are produced.
