Using Exclusion-Based Sample Preparation (ESP) to Reduce Viral Load Assay Cost.
Viral load (VL) measurements are critical to the proper management of HIV in developing countries. However, access to VL assays is limited by the high cost and complexity of existing assays. While there is a need for low cost VL assays, performance must not be compromised. Thus, new assays must be v...
