Abstract excerpt

To determine the value of a quantitative branched DNA (bDNA) assay for detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA, 309 serum specimens were collected from 100 patients with acute or chronic hepatitis C for detection of HCV RNA by bDNA assay and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay. There were 256 samples positive by RT-PCR; 199 (78%) were also positive by bDNA assay. All but 1 of the...
