Hepatitis B virus genotypes and precore mutations in Scottish blood donors.

Vox sanguinis - 1 Feb 2005

Davidson F, Lycett C, Sablon E, Petrik J, Dow B C

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This study was carried out to determine the frequency of hepatitis B virus (HBV) core promoter variants (nucleotide positions 1762, 1764) and precore variants (nucleotide position 1896) in hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive Scottish blood donors. HBV genotypes present in this population were also identified. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 85 HBsAg-positive blood donor...
