Abstract excerpt
We present a simple computational model of measurement accuracy for single-copy sensitivity assays (SCA) of HIV RNA that was developed from first principles. The model shows that the SCA is significantly right-skewed. Measured virus concentrations of 1 and 10 virions/ml had overlapping 95% confidence intervals and were statistically indistinguishable.
