Reverse transcription-PCR detection of hepatitis G virus
1 Nov 1996
Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis G virus (HGV) was recently identified as a new member of the Flaviviridae, but its clinical significance is still unclear. Since no immunoassay for the diagnosis of HGV is available, we developed a sensitive reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assay to facilitate the detection of the viral genome by mass screening in the clinical laboratory. Sequences within the 5'-noncoding region and within the...
