Quantification of hepatitis C virus RNA by RT-PCR in comparison to the branched DNA method.

Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie - 1 Jan 1998

Roth W K, Lee J H, Rüster B, Zeuzem S

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Quantification of hepatitis C virus (HCV) serum viremia levels is an important measure to predict and monitor response to interferon-alpha therapy as well as to predict clinical outcome. We were interested to compare the most widely used HCV quantification methods, quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) and the branched DNA (bDNA) method, with respect to sensitivity and reliability. RESULTS: In the present...
