Predominance of HCV type 2a in saliva from intravenous drug users.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Apr 1998

Roy K M, Bagg J, McCarron B, Good T, Cameron S, Pithie A

Abstract excerpt

Paired serum and saliva samples were collected simultaneously from 50 intravenous drug users with serologically proven hepatitis C virus infection. The oral health of the volunteers was also assessed. Hepatitis C virus RNA was detected by nested PCR, employing primers from the 5' noncoding region. Positive PCR products were sequenced using the Sequenase PCR Product Sequencing Kit (Amersham Life Sciences). HCV RNA...
