Comparison of serum hepatitis B virus replication markers in patients with chronic hepatitis B: studies on HBeAg/Anti-HBe system, viral dna polymerase and HBV-DNA Comparação dos marcadores sorológicos da replicação do vírus da hepatite B: estudos sobre o sistema AgHBe/anti-HBe, DNA polimerase virai e HBV-DNA

Comparison of serum hepatitis B virus replication markers in patients with chronic hepatitis B: studies on HBeAg/Anti-HBe system, viral dna polymerase and HBV-DNA Comparação dos marcadores sorológicos da replicação do vírus da hepatite B: estudos sobre o sistema AgHBe/anti-HBe, DNA polimerase virai e HBV-DNA

The detection of HBV-DNA in serum by molecular hybridization is the most sensitive and specific marker of replication and infectivity of hepatitis B virus and currently is proposed as a routine diagnostic technique in the follow-up of HBV - related diseases. Comparing different techniques already de...
