Quantitative measurement of serum HCV RNA in patients with chronic hepatitis C: comparison between Amplicor HCV monitor system and branched DNA signal amplification assay.

We compared two commercial available assays, Roche Amplicor HCV Monitor test kits and Chiron branched DNA signal amplification (bDNA) assay, in quantitative measurement of serum HCV RNA in 74 patients with chronic hepatitis C....
