Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Accurate HIV viral load (VL) testing is essential for monitoring antiretroviral therapy (ART) and detecting treatment failure. In resource-limited settings such as Njombe Region, Tanzania, laboratories often face prolonged turnaround times (TAT) and suboptimal sample transport and storage. While RNA degradation during extended storage is well documented, its impact on routin...
