The multi-region hybridization assay (MHAbce) for genotyping HIV-1 subtypes B, C and circulating recombinant form (CRF01_AE) was evaluated on paired plasma and dried blood spots (DBS) collected from 68 HIV-1 infected individuals in Thailand. CRF01_AE was the predominant subtype identified using plasma samples (51/62) and DBS (24/27). There was no discordance in subtype designations between plas...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Stability of Urea in Dried Blood Spots Collected and Stored on Filter Paper
The ability to use dry blood spots (DBSs) on filter paper for the analysis of urea levels could be an important diagnostic tool for areas that have limited access to laboratory facilities. We developed a method for the extraction and quantification of urea from DBSs that were stored on 3M Whatman filter paper and investigated the effect of long-term storage on the level of urea in DBSs. DBSs of...
متن کاملMeasurement of gonadotropins in dried blood spots.
We describe direct immunofluorometric assays for luteinizing hormone (hLH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH) in fingerstick blood spots dried on filter paper, based on modifications of commercially available kits. Determinations are made from 2.5-mm-diameter discs (3 microL of dried blood) punched out from blood spot standards and samples. Sample dose detection limits of the assays (IU/L)...
متن کاملHIV-1 drug resistance genotyping from dried blood spots stored for 1 year at 4°C
BACKGROUND Dried blood spots (DBSs) are an attractive alternative to plasma for HIV-1 drug resistance testing in resource-limited settings. We recently showed that HIV-1 can be efficiently genotyped from DBSs stored at -20 degrees C for prolonged periods (0.5-4 years). Here, we evaluated the efficiency of genotyping from DBSs stored at 4 degrees C for 1 year. METHODS A total of 40 DBSs were p...
متن کاملN-Glycan profiling of dried blood spots.
Serum N-glycan profiles for use as clinical biomarkers of disease(s) is of increasing scientific interest. Promising profiles have already been identified in several diseases, including cancer, Alzheimer's, and diabetes. Venipuncture is routinely performed to collect the blood necessary for this type of analysis, but blood from a fingerstick placed on filter paper (known as dried blood spots (D...
