Abstract
Background: Hepatitis B is one of the world’s most common and serious infectious diseases. It is estimated that more than one third of the world’s population has been infected with hepatitis B virus Differentiation between two methods to detect sensitivity and specificity by ICT and COBAS e411., Methods: Serum sample were collected randomly 198 samples were assessed by COBAS e411 and rapid test., Results: A total of 198 Patient subjects attended the Alborg Laboratory at Khartoum State, all sample done by ICT and COBAS e411. There is a significant COBAS e411 result, when compared with the ICT results (P=0.000 in table (1). Total negative result by ICT (84) give (27) reactive and (57) non-reactive by COBAS e411, total positive result by ICT (114) give (110) reactive and (4) non-reactive.
