Ultra-sensitive AAV capsid detection by immunocapture-based qPCR following factor VIII gene transfer

Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene remedy vectors are replication-incompetent and thus pose minimal threat for horizontal transmission or launch into the surroundings. In research with AAV5-FVIII-SQ (valoctocogene roxaparvovec), an investigational gene remedy for hemophilia A, residual vector DNA was detectable in blood, secreta, and excreta, nevertheless it remained unclear how lengthy structurally intact AAV5 vector capsids…

RT-qPCR Diagnostics: The “Drosten” SARS-CoV-2 Assay Paradigm

The reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) is an established tool for the diagnosis of RNA pathogens. Its potential for automation has caused it to be used as a presence/absence diagnostic tool even when RNA quantification is not required. This technology has been pushed to the forefront of public awareness by the COVID-19 pandemic,…
