Cobas ampliprep cobas taqman hiv 1 test kit

Manufactured by Roche

The COBAS AmpliPrep/COBAS TaqMan HIV-1 Test is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification test for the quantitation of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) RNA in human plasma. The test utilizes automated sample preparation (COBAS AmpliPrep instrument) and real-time PCR (COBAS TaqMan analyzer) technologies.

Serum was collected to examine markers of immune functioning and viral load. Plasma HIV-1 RNA quantitative was performed at Quest Diagnostics using the COBAS AmpliPrep/ COBAS Taqman HIV-1 test kit version 2.0 (Roche Molecular Systems). Individuals with a viral load of ≤50 copies/mL were considered virally suppressed.

Quantifying HIV-1 RNA in Cell Cultures

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After the 3 day incubation, culture supernatant was harvested by centrifugation at 1000 x g for 10 minutes to remove cells and debris. 1 mL of supernatant from each condition was then run on the COBAS AmpliPrep/COBAS TaqMan HIV-1 test kit v2.0 for the quantification of HIV-1 RNA (Roche Diagnostics). Culture supernatants assessed using this method have previously been shown to be free of contaminating HIV-1 DNA [72 (link)]. The limit of quantification for this assay is 20 copies/mL so anything that was undetectable or <20 was assigned a value of 20 copies/mL.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
