Specimen Requirements


Specimen

Plasma, frozen


Volume

3 mL


Container

Lavender-top (EDTA) or plasma preparation tube (PPT™)


Collection

Collect specimen in two lavender-top (EDTA) tubes or two PPT™ tubes. Do not use green-top (heparin) tubes. Centrifuge specimen within six hours of collection. Transfer plasma to one or more polypropylene screw-capped tube(s) (not "pop-top" or "snap-cap"), and freeze. Ship specimen frozen. To avoid delays in turnaround time when requesting multiple tests on frozen samples, please submit separate frozen specimens for each test requested.


Storage Instructions

Freeze


Causes for Rejection

PPT™ not centrifuged; insufficient volume; heparinized plasma; nonfrozen specimen


Test Details


Use

Detect HIV-1 coreceptor tropism; determine eligibility for CCR5 antagonist therapy such as maraviroc (Selzentry®)
