Abstract
⺠A quantitative TaqMan® assay was developed to measure HIV-1 proviral DNA. ⺠The assay has broad specificity as it can detect many HIV-1 subtypes. ⺠The assay is very sensitive as it detects reliably 2 Ã 101 to 2 Ã 107 HIV-1 DNA copies in the presence of background chromosomal DNA. ⺠With different primers sets and a single probe the assay can discriminate between linear and circular HIV-1 DNA forms.
