Abstract excerpt
We have improved the methods for the standard competitive growth assay of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The cloning step for the mixed viral population and subsequent genotype analysis for arbitrary numbers of clones were excluded from procedures. Instead, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-detection step was devised for the determination of viral populations. The quantitative SNP-detection...
