Comparison of turnaround time and total cost of HIV testing before and after implementation of the 2014 CDC/APHL Laboratory Testing Algorithm for diagnosis of HIV infection J. Clin. Virol., 91 (2017), pp. 69-72,
Zambia’s national HIV testing algorithm specifies use of two rapid blood based antibody assays, Determine®HIV-1/2 (Inverness Medical) and if positive then Uni-GoldTM Recombigen HIV-1/2 (Trinity Biotech). Little is known about the performance of oral fluid based HIV testing in Zambia. The...

HIV-1 testing algorithm The AxSym HIV Ag/Ab Combo assay is used for all routine HIV screening requests. An input of 200 μl serum or plasma is needed for the test. In general, when the HIV Ag/Ab Combo result is non-reactive (negative) then the HIV serology is finished. The patient ...

As MJ4/Gag chimeric vectors encoded patient Protease up to residue 40, partial Protease was examined for resistance mutations, as defined by the Stanford Resistance Algorithm (http://hivdb.stanford.edu). Neither major nor minor resistance mutations in protease were identified, but polymorphisms were...

(ref. 45) 16S V1-V2 contigs were clustered into OTUs by means of a sub- sampled open reference picking algorithm46 using Sortmerna (reference picking)47 and Sumaclust (de novo OTU picking at 97% sequence similarity; https://metabarcoding.org/sumatra). OTU singletons were removed and, OTU...
After acquisition of raw images, fluorophore positions were computed using PALMTT, a modified version of the Matlab-based 2D Gaussian fitting algorithm MTT65. We used custom-made Matlab algorithms to estimate and correct sample drift based on the estimated trajectories of fluorescent beads. Similarly...
The most common screening method for the diagnosis of infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is the detection (by sandwich ELISA) of virus-specific antibodies elicited by infected individuals in response to the infection (Döpel, S. H. et al. (1991) “COMPARISON OF FOUR ANTI-HIV...
