An enzyme-linked immunoassay (EIA) combined with a solution hybridization (SH) reaction was devised to detect human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) provirus amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In this nonisotopic PCR assay, designated PCR-EIASH, a fragment of the HIV-1 gag gene from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was first amplified with biotinylated primers. The biotinylated amplified DNA segment was reacted in solution with an internal RNA probe labeled with digoxigenin-11-UTP. Hybrids were captured in a microtiter plate coated with streptavidin. Specific bound hybrids were quantitated by the addition of an enzyme-labeled antibody against digoxigenin and a fluorogenic substrate. The hybridization, immunological, and amplification parameters of PCR-EIASH were optimized as follows: 12.5 pmol of each primer was used in the PCR; the reannealing reaction of amplified products with the RNA probe, which was used at 0.30 microgram/ml, was completed in 30 min at 70 degrees C in 2x SSC (1x SSC is 0.15 M NaCl plus 0.015 M sodium citrate). Five copies of HIV-1 DNA diluted in a lysate of 100,000 PBMCs from a seronegative control could be detected by PCR-EIASH with a signal of 41 +/- 3 fluorescent units above a background noise of 13 +/- 2 fluorescent units. A total of 91 PBMC lysates from 91 seropositive patients sampled once and 20 PBMC lysates from 10 seropositive patients sampled twice were tested in duplicate in the PCR-EIASH; 107 samples were positive in duplicate tests, 1 sample was indeterminate, and 3 samples were negative. Of the latter three samples, one became positive by diluting the cell lysate, suggesting the presence of an inhibitor of Taq polymerase. The three samples negative for HIV-1 by PCR-EIASH were also negative when amplified with SK145-SK39 and detected with 32P-labeled SK102.
