FIG. 4.
HCV PCR and HCV TMA workflow analysis. The upper segments of each bar graph show total running time and hands-on time per sample. The lower segments of each bar graph illustrate the proportion of time devoted to the separate tasks of (i) sample preparation and RNA extraction and capture and (ii) amplification, detection, and analysis. A total of 22 reportable samples were run by HCV PCR; 64 samples were run by HCV TMA.
