Evaluating the PGMY-centre hospitalier universitaire vaudois assay as a cost-effective tool for human papillomavirus genotyping in HIV-infected women

Conclusion: The CHUV assay had an acceptable sensitivity, but it lacked specificity for HPV detection. Despite the lower rates of detection of multiple infections from clinical samples, better results were obtained with the WHO reference samples and the ability of the assay to identify the entire range of genotypes suggests that it can be an efficient tool for genotyping.
