Assessing human immunodeficiency virus type 1 tropism: Comparison of assays using replication-competent virus versus plasma-derived pseudotyped virions.
Academic Article
Overview
abstract
Detection of CXCR4-using human immunodeficiency virus by the Trofile assay was compared to that by assays using virus isolates or replication-competent recombinants. Concordance with the Trofile assay was good, but assays using replicating viruses did not increase substantially the ability to detect the presence of CXCR4-using virus.
