Genetic and Serological Evidence for Multiple Instances of Unrecognized Transmission of Hepatitis C Virus in Hemodialysis Units

1 Oct 1998

Abstract excerpt

We investigated the unrecognized patient-to-patient transmission of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in hemodialysis units by performing phylogenetic and serological analyses of hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) of HCV. Of the 62 patients in one center, 11 were positive for HCV RNA. A total of 24 HVR1 sequences, including the minor population of sequences of HCV isolates, from each patient were closely related and classified...
