Figure 1. Comparison of Plasma and Vaginal HIV Levels Derived from the Roche Amplicor System and the Hpol Real-time RT PCR Assay.

Figure 1

Comparisons were conducted from duplicate aliquots of a single 1 ml sample of plasma and provider-collected vaginal secretion supernatants; 500 ul of each sample were analyzed in the tandem assays. A. Comparison of Log10 value from plasma samples (n=36). HIV RNA was detected in 30 plasma samples using the real-time RT PCR assay and 31 samples using the Roche Amplicor system. B. Comparison of Log10 HIV levels from vaginal secretion supernatant samples (n=20). HIV RNA was detected in all vaginal secretion supernatant samples analyzed.
