## Abstract By a combination of reversed transcription and subsequent polymerase chain reaction (RNAβPCR), 23 cytologically normal cervical scrapings, positive for the presence of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV 16) DNA, were analyzed for the presence of transcripts originating from the E6 region

Seventy-seven women with normal cervical cytology on routine visit to a family planning clinic in Nairobi, Kenya, were analysed for genital human papillomavirus (HPV) types by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). We applied a general primer pair (GP60/GP124) recognising sequences conserved among HPV typ
Infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV), is the most significant risk factor for cervical cancer and it may be possible to prevent this malignancy by immunisation. Before immunisation programmes can be designed, however, it is necessary to know the age of acquisition and all routes of
