Assessing genetic evolution and detecting human papillomavirus by matching two complementary highly sensitive approaches, nested-qPCR and sequencing.

Becoming armed with an appropriate strategy to isolate the minimum number of human papillomaviruses (HPV), regardless of DNA extraction method, can be a huge step in preventing false negative; it has a significant effect on the management and control of HPV infection among women's population. This study was conducted in Qom province, considering the risk factors associated with HPV. It was able to analyze genetic evolution in its genotypes and evaluated the limit of detection by a new diagnostic approach.
