Development of HCV genotyping protocol based on high resolution melting analysis real-time PCR: a pilot study

Determination of HCV genotype is important for the disease prognosis and prediction of treatment outcomes. Several methods of genotyping are commercially available and others are done in-house. Aims for the study were to elucidate nucleotide sequence of local HCV strains and to establish an in-house...

Several methods of genotyping are commercially available and others are done in-house. Aims for the study were to elucidate nucleotide sequence of local HCV strains and to establish an in-house technique for HCV genotyping using DNA intercalating dye real-time PCR. HCV RNA was extracted and subjected to reverse transcription before amplification using SsoFast EvaGreen mix real-time PCR. Sequence analysis of the 5’UTR revealed two major groups of HCV genotypes (1 and 3). The GC content HCV genotype 1 and 3 were 57.14-58.44% and 55.19-57.14, respectively.
