aRatio of the sample optical density (OD) to the threshold value (TV), as calculated by Monolisa AgHBs Ultra®. Samples with OD/TV values greater than or equal to 1.00 are considered reactive. b Determined with two EIA tests: Dia.Pro HBsAg® one version ULTRA for detection of HBsAg; positive samples were confirmed using Monolisa™ HBsAg ULTRA Confirmation test.
