Comparative evaluation of four commercial analyzers for the serological screening of hepatitis A
This study highlights inter-assay variability in anti-HAV IgM detection and underscores the need for improved harmonization across platforms. Future studies incorporating a sufficient number of molecularly confirmed acute hepatitis A cases are warranted to clarify the causes of false results and minimize the potential clinical impact of inaccurate testing.
