Abstract excerpt
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has improved HIV-1 genotypic resistance testing (GRT) by enabling the detection of minority drug-resistance variants, although interpretation of low-frequency mutations remains challenging because of sequencing artifacts. This study compared the analytical performance and workflow efficiency of two Ion Torrent platforms, GeneStudio S5 (S5) and Genexus (GX), for routine HIV-1 GRT....
