Comprehensive Genetic Testing for Deafness from Fresh and Archived Dried Blood Spots
Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2018Comprehensive genetic testing has become integral in the evaluation of children with deafness, but the amount of blood required to obtain DNA can be prohibitive in newborns. Dried blood spots (DBSs) are routinely collected and would provide an alternative source of DNA. Our objective was to evaluate the use of DBSs for comprehensive genetic testing for

[The use of dried blood spots for HIV-antibody testing in Sahel].
Bulletin de la Societe de pathologie exotique (1990), 2006Undertaking a HIV seroepidemiological survey in Sahel is logistically problematic, since countries like Niger or Mali are very large with scattered populations and harsh climatic conditions. Therefore, the replacement of serum samples by whole blood dried on filter papers has been studied for HIV-antibody testing with commercial kits that are commonly ...
