Abstract:
:A method for co-amplification of multiple viral sequences of HIV-1 and HIV-2 by polymerase chain reaction was designed. The technique resulted in the specific detection of each type of virus and allowed the amplification of as few as two copies of target DNA. The amplification of multiple regions of the viral genome offers the advantage of detecting multiple target sequences, which may be essential for some viruses, such as HIV, that exhibit a high degree of variability in their gene sequences. In addition, the method permitted the detection of both virus types in the same reaction, allowing for greater utility in geographic areas where coinfections with both viruses occur and cross-reactivity in Western blots is observed. This method was applied successfully to the detection of viral DNA in clinical specimens.
