Abstract excerpt
Nucleos(t)ide analogues (NUCs) susceptibility assay is important for the study of hepatitis B virus (HBV) drug resistance. The purpose of susceptibility assay is to test the sensitivity of a specific HBV variant to NUCs in vitro, by which assesses if and to what extent the mutant virus is resistant to a specific NUC. Among the existing susceptibility assay methods, stable cell line expressing the specific variant...
