Journal ArticleDOI

Correction: Corrigendum: Differential expression of lncRNAs during the HIV replication cycle: an underestimated layer in the HIV-host interplay

TL;DR: In this Article, Yvan Saeys is incorrectly listed as being affiliated with ‘Department of Biomedical Molecular Biology Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium’.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the whereabouts of SARS-CoV-2 in the human body: A systematic review.

TL;DR: New light is shed on the current view of SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis and the foundation for better diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 patients is laid to construct a viral distribution and ACE2 receptor body map.
Journal ArticleDOI

ddpcRquant: threshold determination for single channel droplet digital PCR experiments

TL;DR: This work shows that the normality assumption that the fluorescent signal of droplets is normally distributed does not likely hold true for most ddPCR runs, resulting in an erroneous threshold, and suggests a methodology that does not make any assumptions about the distribution of the fluorescence readouts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Digital PCR as a tool to measure HIV persistence.

TL;DR: Quantification of HIV by digital PCR is proving to be a valuable improvement over qPCR as it is argued to have a higher robustness to mismatches between the primers-probe set and heterogeneous HIV, and forfeits the need for a standard curve, both of which are known to complicate reliable quantification.
