  • Title: A comparative study of PAP technique and in-situ molecular hybridization for identification of human papilloma viruses in cervical lesions.
    Author: Krishnani N, Agarwal A, Singh M.
    Journal: Indian J Pathol Microbiol; 1991 Jul; 34(3):166-71. PubMed ID: 1667992.
    Abstract:
    The association of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) with cervical lesions was correlated using peroxidase anti-peroxidase (PAP) technique and in-situ molecular hybridization (MH) with H3 labelled DNA probes (HPV type 6, 11, 16 and 18). The PAP technique to demonstrate capsid antigen and molecular hybridization for DNA sequences was studied in 30 cases. The correlation of HPV with cervical lesions was seen in 29.9% cases with PAP technique unlike 73.4% using M.H. technique, indicating the efficacy of the latter.
