Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a major causative agent of acute viral hepatitis in many regions of the world including Africa. In Cameroon, there is no published molecular study on HEV in humans. However, based on serological assays, the first outbreak of HEV was detected in North-Cameroon. The objective of this study was to determine the molecular characterization of HEV that circulated during this period. A...
