Abstract excerpt
Two rapid genotyping methods for hepatitis C virus (HCV), the line probe assay (Inno-LiPA) and the subtype-specific core amplification system [Okamoto et al., (1992b) Journal of General Virology 73:673-679], were applied to 58 HCV isolates which were typed as type 1 (n = 37) and type 2 (n = 21) by sequence analysis of the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR). The line probe assay targets the 5'UTR and recognized 12...
