pubmed:abstractText |
Assays for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody testing are characterized by very high levels of sensitivity and specificity. Nonetheless, serologic testing of HIV-infected individuals before they produce multispecific HIV antibodies will not detect and confirm those individuals as positive for HIV. This study was carried out to determine whether viral RNA in such specimens is detectable in a quantitative RNA polymerase chain reaction assay.
