Abstract excerpt

A competitive reverse transcription (RT)-nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for HCV RNA was compared with the Roche Amplicor HCV Monitor assay, based on non-competitive, single step RT-PCR. A total of 83 serum samples were tested in parallel by both assays. All samples could be quantified by competitive RT-PCR (cPCR), whereas seven were negative by the non-competitive assay (ncPCR). The HCV RNA titre of...
