Evaluation of branched DNA signal amplification for the detection of hepatitis C virus RNA
1 May 1995
Abstract excerpt
Summary. There is an increasing need for a practical assay to measure HCV RNA to assess the viral burden in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection as viral load relates to transmission and therapeutic response. This study evaluates branched DNA (bDNA) signal amplification, a technique that avoids many of the pitfalls of polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The bDNA assay uses a microtitre well format and a series...
