Characterization of occult hepatitis B virus strains in south african blood donors†

2 Feb 2009

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Since October 2005, all blood units collected in South Africa were screened individually for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1, hepatitis B and C virus (HBV, HCV) genomes uncovering preseroconversion window period (WP) infections for each virus and occult HBV infections (OBIs) defined as persistent HBV DNA without detectable hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). Samples identified as...
