ABSTRACT:
A method for the diagnosis in vitro of HIV-1 infections by treating CD4-positive cells infected with blood and other biological materials with synthetic peptides derived from V3 region of HTLV-III B strain and from MN strain of HIV-1 virus is reported. The above peptides enhance the infectivity of HIV-1 virus in cellular cultures in vitro.
