Abstract:
The predominant mode of transmission of HIV-1 worldwide is sexual intercourse. Therefore, there has been growing interest in studying HIV-1 in genital secretions. Given the urgency to develop a vaccine to protect against HIV-1, techniques have been developed to isolate and quantitate HIV-1 from genital secretions.
