Polymerase Chain Reaction Detection of Y Chromosome Sequences in Vaginal Fluid: Preliminary Studies of a Potential Biomarker for Sexual Behavior

24 Jan 2005

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Self-reported measures of sexual behavior are subject to nontrivial reporting biases. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to develop a behavioral biomarker of recent sexual activity among females that is inexpensive, easily administered, and can be used in low sexually transmitted disease prevalence populations. METHODS: We developed a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay to detect Y...
