The VScan™ line of test kits is designed for the rapid initial screening of various serious infectious diseases (many of which are at pandemic levels in various parts of the world. including HIV (Types 1 & 2), Hepatitis B & C and Tuberculosis (TB), West Nile virus and Dengue Fever.

Recently new kits have been introduced to detect for sexual transmitted diseases (STDs) and for the initial detection of cancer. The STD kit tests for Syphilis and the Cancer kit tests for Prostate Cancer. Other innovative kits are under development.
 

The VScan™ HIV test kit has demonstrated a very high sensitivity using whole blood. The VScan™ rapid test kit incorporates a unique combination of antigens which has the ability to identify all classes of HIV antibodies and is able to detect HIV very early (as early as a few days). This is through the detection of the IgM antibodies. Other test kits detect the virus at a later more chronic stage (through the detection of only the IgG antibodies). This makes the VScan™ HIV 1 & 2 rapid test kit the most sensitive test kit available. 

VScan™ rapid test kit for Tuberculosis (TB) is the only TB test kit that measures ONLY ACTIVE TB. There are NO false positives with the VScan™ TB rapid test kits. Previous testing has shown that the VScan™ TB test kit has a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 100%. These results substantially exceed the accuracy of any other existing TB tests.

Existing TB tests routinely produce false positives when a person has previously been vaccinated against TB using some of the vaccines available. This results in further testing that is expensive, stressful to the individual and time consuming. The VScan™ TB test kit is the only known test kit for TB that measures only ACTIVE TB and does not produce false positives.

These products have been thoroughly tested and evaluated in the lab, in volunteers (under Doctor supervision) and by independent sources (including Governments) and have been shown to meet or exceed the existing global standards for both sensitivity and specificity. None of these products are available for sale in Canada or the United States.
