Abstract excerpt
Specific HPV genotypes have been recognized as risk factors inducing head and neck cancers (HNC). The aim of this study was to validate a real-time PCR assay to detect accurately High Risk HPV DNA in Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) and oral cytobrush samples and compare the results with conventional PCR. Repeatability, reproducibility and limit of detection of Cobas assay were estimated for oral cytobrush...
