Abstract:
A retrospective examination of quantitation standard growth curves associated with 1,000 unique clinical serum specimens tested by a laboratory-developed TaqMan hepatitis C virus analyte-specific reagent-based assay revealed anomalous growth curves associated with 0.40% (95% confidence interval, 0.11% to 1.00%) of these specimens.
