Quantification and duration of viraemia during hepatitis A infection as determined by real‐time RT‐PCR

Abstract excerpt

Human transmission studies and molecular techniques have provided evidence that transient viraemia occurs during infection with hepatitis A virus (HAV). However, the duration of its presence and levels during the phases of clinical disease and convalescence has not yet been well studied in human patients. Real-time RT-PCR techniques are increasingly used to quantify RNA viruses for diagnosis and/or research...
