Richard and/or Rod;

I was under the impression that VGINF was in the forefront of testing for resistant strains of HIV. Is this the case or is LabCorp mentioned by Richard ahead of Visible Genetics?

Who is developing test for drug resistant bacteria? The potential for a fast reliable (genetic?) test must be huge as hospitals continue to deal with the resistance problems. The one thing that seems to make drug resistant bacteria more of a problem where they mutate further, is to continually throw antibiotcs at them when they are already resistant. IOW killing off the non-resistant bacteria creates a situation where the resistant strains mushroom. So............the importance of detecting the different strain.

Thanks;
Steve
