Zusammenfassung: | Background
Viral reservoirs represent an important barrier to HIV cure. Accurate markers of HIV reservoirs are needed to develop multicenter studies. The aim of this multicenter quality control (QC) was to evaluate the inter‐laboratory reproducibility of total HIV‐1‐DNA quantification.
Methods
Ten laboratories of the ANRS‐AC11 working group participated by quantifying HIV‐DNA with a real‐time qPCR assay (Biocentric) in four samples (QCMD).
Results
Good reproducibility was found between laboratories (standard deviation ≤ 0.2 log10 copies/106 PBMC) for the three positive QC that were correctly classified by each laboratory (QC1 |
