Test Details

Methodology

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and DNA sequencing.

Result Turnaround Time

11 - 14 days

Turnaround time is defined as the usual number of days from the date of pickup of a specimen for testing to when the result is released to the ordering provider. In some cases, additional time should be allowed for additional confirmatory or additional reflex tests. Testing schedules may vary.

Use

Detect resistance of HIV-1 to protease, reverse transcriptase, and integrase inhibitors.

Special Instructions

Submit a separate frozen specimen for each test requested.

Limitations

This procedure may not be successful when the HIV viral load is <500 copies/mL plasma. If there is insufficient virus to produce results, HIV-1 RNA quantitation will be performed to confirm viral load, and the procedure will be billed at the account's prevailing fee.

Specimen Requirements

Specimen

Plasma, frozen

Volume

5 mL

Container

Lavender-top (EDTA) or plasma preparation tubes (PPT™)

Collection Instructions

Collect specimen in three lavender-top (EDTA) tubes or three PPT™ tubes. Do not use green-top (heparin) tubes. Centrifuge specimen within six hours of collection. Transfer plasma to one or more screw-cap polypropylene transport tube(s). Snap-cap or Pop-top tubes should be avoided and may result in specimen rejection. Immediately freeze specimen at - 20° C. Do not place samples on dry ice until completely frozen. Ship specimens frozen. To avoid delays in turnaround time when requesting multiple tests on frozen samples, please submit separate frozen specimens for each test requested.

Stability Requirements

Temperature

Period

Frozen

2 years

Storage Instructions

Freeze for shipment or long-term storage.

Causes for Rejection

PPT™ not centrifuged; insufficient volume; heparinized plasma; nonfrozen specimens; specimens exposed to repeated freeze/thaw cycles
