Generation of HIV-1 and Internal Control Transcripts as Standards for an In-House Quantitative Competitive RT-PCR Assay to Determine HIV-1 Viral Load

Figure 3

Correlation between the NucliSens EasyQ HIV-1 v1.1 test (bioMerieux, Boxtel, The Netherlands) and the in-house qRT-PCR assay, on 14 plasma specimens from HIV-1 infected patients. The solid line represents the identity line, where all determinations should fall if a perfect correlation between the two assays was achieved. 𝑟², determination coefficient; 𝑟, correlation coefficient.
