Accurate measurement of antibody to the hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) is important in aid in the diagnosis of individuals infected with hepatitis B as well as for monitoring the success of hepatitis B vaccination. An automated assay for the quantitative determination of anti-HBs in human serum and plasma has been developed for the US on the Abbott AxSYM system.
