Abstract excerpt
The TRUGENE HIV-1 Genotyping Kit for HIV-1 drug resistance testing is limited by the need for samples with HIV-1 RNA loads of at least 1000 copies/mL. In order to enable sequencing of clinical samples with viral loads under 1000 copies/mL, an optimized automated sample preparation protocol on the VERSANT kPCR Sample Preparation (SP) Module was evaluated. In order to prove the concept of successful sequencing of...
