Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) evolves rapidly in a single host and circulates as a quasispecies wich is a complex mixture of genetically distinct virus's but closely related namely variants. To identify intra-individual diversity and investigate their functional properties in vitro, it is necessary to define their quasispecies composition and isolate the HCV variants. This is possible using single genome amplification...
