Simple Amplification‐Based Assay: A Nucleic Acid–Based Point‐of‐Care Platform for HIV‐1 Testing
12 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A new nucleic acid-based assay (simple amplification-based assay [SAMBA]) for rapid visual detection of human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) by dipstick is described. The assay was designed to be simple, stable, robust, self-contained, and capable of detecting a broad spectrum of HIV-1 subtypes and recombinant forms. METHODS: The performance of the SAMBA HIV-1 test (amplification and detection...
