Comparative study of four NGS platforms (454, Illumina, PacBio, Ion) in clinical assay to determine HIV tropism (polymorphisms in HIV env gene). Ion protocol included amplification of 2300 bp gene fragment, random cleavage, endrepair, adapter ligation, size selection at 150 bp on Pippin Prep, enrichment PCR, library quant., emPCR, sequencing on PGM. All platforms worked almost equally well in this study.
