Abstract
A 10 mM concentration of lithium does not interfere with reverse transcription (RT) or PCR. Sampling of cervicovaginal fluid by vaginal washing, with lithium (10 mM) in the washing buffer as a marker of dilution, may be utilized to accurately determine in HIV-infected women, by quantitative RT-PCR, the genital shedding of acellular HIV RNA at the level of the mucosa itself.Entities:
