Table 3. Positive Alu-gag signals are only detected in the chromosomal fraction of patient PBMC DNA.

The average Alu–gag and gag-only signals were determined in Figure 4.

	Cycle number at which signal above threshold
	Alu-gag (Ct)	gag only (Ct)
Chromosomal	26.1 +/− 1.22	30.0 +/− 0.15
Linear HIV	29.6 +/− 0.11	29.9 +/− 0.07
Circular HIV	30.1 +/− 0.04	30.2 +/− 0.10

Mixture	26.8 +/− 1.76	28.6 +/− 0.11
