Abstract excerpt

A novel single-stranded DNA virus, TT virus(TTV), has been reported recently. We detected TTV viral sequences by polymerase chain reaction using primers derived from nucleotide sequences of ORF1 and the 5' noncoding region of ORF2. Using primers of the 5' noncoding region, TTV DNA was detected in 21 of 25(84%) healthy individuals, suggesting that most TTV strains detected by these primers are almost harmless. In...
