Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Screening of Thai blood donors has resulted in the detection of donors with an occult HBV infection (OBI), where HBsAg is undetectable, but hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA is present in serum in low concentrations. This study was designed to determine whether the occurrence of OBI in donors was linked to the HBV genotype and possibly to mutations in the surface (S) and core (C) gene...
