Abstract excerpt

Genotypes of hepatitis C virus (HCV) present within 104 samples from HCV-infected individuals from Africa, the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent and South-East Asia were identified by sequence comparisons in the core and NS-5 regions. Relatively short sequences (such as the 222 bp fragment of NS-5) provided effective discrimination of types, subtypes and isolates, and produced equivalent relationships between...
