Abstract excerpt
Quantification of plasma HIV-1 RNA levels has rapidly become the main tool for monitoring disease progression and treatment. However, some first-generation assays do not accurately quantify all HIV-1 subtypes. This study compares the first-generation and two newer prototype Amplicor HIV-1 Monitor assays (Roche Diagnostic Systems) in terms of their performance in quantifying HIV-1 RNA in stored plasma samples from...
