Frequently Asked Questions: What is the difference between this rapid test and the 4th/5th generation tests? Our rapid test detects only antibodies ($\text{1st/2nd Gen}$). Newer, lab-based 4th and 5th generation tests detect both antibodies AND the $\text{p}24$ antigen. The $\text{p}24$ antigen is detectable much earlier (as early as 2 weeks post-exposure). For recent exposure (less than 12 weeks), the 4th/5th generation lab test is strongly recommended. What is the "window period," and why does it matter for this test? The window period is the time between potential exposure and when the body produces enough antibodies to be reliably detected. For this $\text{1st/2nd}$ generation test, the window period is up to 12 weeks. A negative result before 12 weeks from exposure is not conclusive and must be repeated.
