Abstrakt: ABSTRACTHemaSpot, a novel dried-blood storage filter device, was used for HIV-1 polresistance testing in 30 fresh United States blood samples and 54 previously frozen Kenyan blood samples. Genotyping succeeded in 79% and 58% of samples, respectively, improved with shorter storage and higher viral load, and had good (86%) resistance mutation concordance to plasma.
