Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Among the genotypes of human polyomavirus JC (JCV) reported in Taiwan, CY, TW1, TW2 and TW3 are the most commonly correlated with human diseases. JCV is usually detected using nucleotide sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. The aim of this study was to detect the rate of positivity and genotype of the JCV genome in urine by RFLP or capillary electrophoresis...
