Abstract excerpt
We investigated the characterization of different HIV-1 subtypes present in French Guiana by use of three different methods. Serological methods were used for the initial screening, which were then confirmed by the heteroduplex mobility assay (HMA). The V3 env region was subsequently sequenced for phylogenetic analysis, to confirm the subtype of the samples, and to assign a subtype to samples that gave results...
