A Partially Multiplexed HIV Drug Resistance (HIVDR) Assay for Monitoring HIVDR Mutations of the Protease, Reverse-Transcriptase (PRRT), and Integrase (INT).

This HIVDR genotyping assay works for both plasma and DBS samples, requires low sample input, and is sensitive. This assay has the potential to be a user-friendly and cost-effective HIVDR assay because of its partially multiplexed design. Application of this genotyping assay will help HIVDR monitoring in HIV high-burdened countries using a DGT-based HIV drug regimen recommended by the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief and the WHO.
