Abstract

The present invention provides a method for detecting the presence of a retrovirus in a biological sample comprising the steps of : a) contacting the biological sample with an RNA template and a complementary DNA primer under conditions whereby the RNA template and the DNA primer will anneal and a DNA
strand will be synthesized as an extension from the DNA primer if reverse transcriptase is present in the sample; b) amplifying the synthesized DNA; and c) detecting the amplification of the synthesized DNA, the amplification of the synthesized DNA indicating the presence of reverse transcriptase in the biological sample, thus indicating the presence of a retrovirus in the biological sample.
