Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: We investigated genetic polymorphisms of MBL2 gene, in a cohort of 90 Italian HIV-1 pregnant seropositive women and their children in order to understand whether the MBL2 genotype of HIV-1 positive mothers might be related to their ability to transmit the virus to their children. MATERIALS AND METHODS: DNA was extracted from Iso Code Stix cards, and MBL2 genotyping was performed by Melting Temperature...
