Utility Of POC Xpert HIV-1 Tests For Detection-Quantifcation Of Complex HIV Recombinants Using Dried Blood Spots From Kinshasa, D. R. Congo
Point-of-Care (POC) molecular assays improve HIV infant diagnosis and viral load (VL) quantification in resource-limited settings. We evaluated POC performance in Kinshasa (Democratic Republic of Congo), with high diversity of HIV-1 recombinants. In 2016, 160 dried blood samples (DBS) were collected...
