Nevirapine Resistance in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1-Positive Infants Determined Using Dried Blood Spots Stored for Up to Six Years at Room Temperature
Year: 2009
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Dried blood spots that had been stored ambiently for 3 to 6 years lost approximately 1 log(10) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA, but the majority could still be genotyped for resistance. Nevirapine resistance was found in 7/16 (43.5%) HIV-1-positive HIVNET 024 infants at 4 to 6 weeks, but no resistance was found at other time points.
