A preliminary evaluation of five HIV antigen detection assays.

Abstract:

:Five commercial assays for detecting HIV antigen were evaluated using a panel of 40 coded samples in six laboratories. All assays were capable of detecting HIV-1 antigen (HIV-1 Ag), and are likely to prove useful for monitoring supernatant fluids from a variety of cell cultures. The concentration of HIV-1 protein which the assays detected varied from 25 ng/ml down to 25 pg/ml. Three of the five assays were also able to detect HIV-2 Ag. More extensive evaluations are needed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of these assays on serum samples and body fluids.

  • Inferring viral population structures using heteroduplex mobility and DNA sequence analyses.

    abstract::Heteroduplex mobility (HMA) and tracking assays (HTA) are used to assess genetic relationships between DNA molecules. While distinguishing relationships between clonal or nearly clonal molecules is relatively straightforward, inferring population structures is more complex. To address this issue, HIV-1 quasispecies wi...
