Abstract excerpt
A panel of genetically diverse, well-characterized human immunodeficiency type 1 (HIV-1) virus isolates is a valuable tool for standardizing nucleic acid-based tests. Since HIV quantitative assays target different regions of the genome, thorough molecular characterization is useful for evaluating the effect of genetic variation on viral load assay performance. In this study, 39 virus isolates were examined. The...
