Qualitative PCR


Test Methodology:

Amplification of HPV genotype specific DNA sequences by PCR is used to detect and identify the specific HPV genotype(s) in this test. The HPV DNA genotyping test method identifies the presence of any of the 37 common HPV genotypes in the specimen. The low-risk HPV types identification include HPV 6, 11, 26, 34, 40, 42, 43, 44, 54, 55, 57, 61, 67, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 81, 82, 83 and 84; whereas the high-risk HPV types identification include HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 53, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68. It covers approximately 97.3% of all HPV infection in the general population.
