Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The Japanese Red Cross (JRC) carries out nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT) for hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) by using a multiplex (MPX) reagent. Screening is undertaken on serologically negative units. In this study we characterized HBV NAT-positive donations individually and analysed the window period and kinetics of...
