High prevalence of genotype 6 hepatitis C virus infection in Southern Taiwan using Abbott genotype assays

13 Aug 2019

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Abbott RealTime Genotype II assay can effectively identify hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes (GTs), but some GT 6 subtypes might not be differentiated from GT 1. Abbott RealTime Genotype II PLUS and sequencing might be needed to resolve these ambiguous results. Unlike the high prevalence of GT 6 in Southeast Asia, GT 6 had rarely been reported in Taiwan except in intravenous drug abusers...
