Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of genotype and precore/core-promoter mutations in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected individuals in Tunisia. METHODS: We studied 164 Tunisian patients (38 HBeAg-positive and 126 HBeAg-negative) with chronic HBV infection. Genotypes and precore/core-promoter mutations were studied using Inno-LiPA and Multiplex-PCR and PCR-RFLP methodology....
