Abstract excerpt

The determination of HCV genotypes, subtypes and isolates has been helpful in understanding the evolution and the epidemiology of the virus, and is an important factor in the pre-treatment evaluation. A new simpler and automated sequencing based system has been developed recently, the Visible Genetics TruGene Hepatitis C Assay. The aim of the study was to compare this new genotyping assay with reverse...
