Dataset: Hepatitis B Viral DNA Among HBs Antigen Negative Healthy Blood Donors
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background: Presence of occult hepatitis B infection (OBI) renders HBs antigen (HBsAg) undetectable by ELISA. Therefore it is valuable to evaluate the frequency of OBI among healthy blood donors to improve and perhaps change the strategies of blood screening to reduce the risk of HBV transmission.
