Intervirology. 2012;55(2):118-22. doi: 10.1159/000332003. Epub 2012 Jan 24.

Abstract

XTrack, a rapid, cost-effective diagnostic HIV tropism system, yields predictive results and dissects virus mixtures. It is based on the duplexing of patient samples with selective DNA probes, combined with sequence-based analysis and replicative phenotyping for ambiguous samples.
