In this report, we quantified HTLV-I provirus load using the AmpliSensor system, which utilizes fluorescence to measure PCR products. With this method, provirus loads could be measured within 6 hr, and the results obtained correlated well with those obtained by other methods. Samples from 256 blood
## Abstract To study the pathophysiological state of HTLVβ1 carriers and the quantitative aspect of the risk of HTLVβ1 infection, we measured the absolute amounts of HTLVβ1 provirus in 39 seropositive blood donors. The amount of provirus varied from less than one to more than 10^4^ molecules per 10
