Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for assessing viral, e.g., HIV, infection duration in a subject. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to for assessing viral, e.g., HIV, infection duration in a subject using, inter alia, a reader configured to measure both the number of signal pixels and the intensities of signal pixels to generate a quantitative signal readout that is used to assess average antibody avidity of an anti-viral antibody, e.g., an anti-HIV antibody, in a sample liquid and/or viral, e.g., HIV, infection duration in a subject.

Abstract: Specially designed collection strips and their processing. By using specially designed collection strips, having a backer and one or more absorbent pads, in conjunction with a unique processing method, the processes of analyzing biological samples such as blood, or the like, may be done efficiency with the elimination of cross contamination risk. Identification of the sample stays with the sample throughout the process as it resides on the collection strip. The strip absorbs a known volume. The sample with identification is placed directly in an elution solution, without mechanically separating the sample from its identification information. Elimination of the need for mechanical separation tends to reduce cross contamination, as well as reducing sample processing time.
