Performance of the Abbott Real-Time PCR Assay Usingm2000spandm2000rtfor Hepatitis C Virus RNA Quantification

Abstract excerpt

Quantification of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA is essential for the everyday management of chronic hepatitis C therapy. "Real-time" PCR techniques are potentially more sensitive than classical PCR techniques, are not prone to carryover contamination, and have a consistently wider dynamic range of quantification. Thus, they are rapidly replacing other technologies for routine quantification of HCV RNA. We...
