They used nuclear magnetic resonance and other imaging techniques to study the structure of this region, which is partially imbedded in the viral membrane...
...time now. Studies funded by the National Institutes of Health in Uganda, for example, showed that among heterosexual couples in which only one partner is HIV positive, the chances of spreading HIV are low if the HIV positive partner has low levels of virus circulating in the blood. Such viral load is also a key factor in determining whether HIV-positive pregnant women pass on the infection to their unborn children: women with lower viral loads have a smaller chance of infecting their babies. "The phenomenon of lower virus, less chance of transmission is well known," says Dr. Anthony Fauci...
...fact, viral-load tests are only rough guides for how much virus is circulating in an infected person's body; it's well known that HIV levels can blip upwards periodically. In addition, viral-load readings are generally done once every three months, so even if the virus is undetectable, which means there are fewer than 40 copies of HIV per ml of blood, there is no way of knowing what a person's viral count is at any given time. "There is no way of knowing what the viral count is for a person at home about to engage...

Enabling large-scale use of nucleic acid testing is critical since the majority of HIV transmissions occur during an acute spike in viral levels during the first three to nine weeks after infection, Lopez said...
