Relationship Between Ebola Virus Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction–Based Threshold Cycle Value and Virus Isolation From Human Plasma
3 May 2015
Abstract excerpt
We performed a longitudinal analysis of plasma samples obtained from 4 patients with Ebola virus (EBOV) disease (EVD) to determine the relationship between the real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR)-based threshold cycle (Ct) value and the presence of infectious EBOV. EBOV was not isolated from plasma samples with a Ct value of >35.5 or >12 days after onset of symptoms....
