FIG. 2.

EBV copy numbers in one patient with primary EBV infection and PTLD after kidney transplantation: comparison of quantification with and without normalization to genomic DNA. The viral load of one kidney transplant recipient who developed PTLD after primary EBV infection was monitored over a period of 40 weeks. Shown are results either normalized to the amount of coamplified genomic DNA (black circles) or not (white circles). The time points of primary EBV infection (horizontal arrow) PTLD duration (bold line) and tapering of immunosuppression (vertical arrows) are indicated.
