An evaluation of the non-instrumented nucleic acid amplification (NINA) heaters as compared to a real-time PCR thermocycler by measuring the performance of the HIV LAMP assay with a range of HIV RNA target concentrations.

All results were confirmed by NALF, agarose gel electrophoresis, and melt curve analysis. Table entries show the number of replicates that returned a positive result as the numerator of a fraction showing the total number of replicates run in the denominator.An evaluation of the non-instrumented nucleic acid amplification (NINA) heaters as compared to a real-time PCR thermocycler by measuring the performance of the HIV LAMP assay with a range of HIV RNA target concentrations.
