Vertical transmission of human immunodeficiency virus.

Acta microbiologica et immunologica Hungarica - 1 Jan 2001

Tóth F D, Bácsi A, Beck Z, Szabó J

Abstract excerpt

Sensitive detection methods, such as DNA PCR and RNA PCR suggest that vertical transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) occurs at three major time periods; in utero, around the time of birth, and postpartum as a result of breastfeeding (Fig. 1). Detection of proviral DNA in infant's blood at birth suggests that transmission occurred prior to delivery. A working definition for time of infection is that...
