Abstract excerpt
By using the "flow-through hybridization" principle, we developed a new, rapid and accurate reverse dot blot (RDB) method to detect lamivudine resistance-associated YMDD motif variants in hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome. The improved RDB method was very fast at simultaneously detecting HBV YMDD wild-type and mutant motifs. In a blind analysis, 100 samples previously genotyped by DNA clonal sequencing analysis were...
