Antibody-free virion titer greatly differs between hepatitis C virus genotypes.

abstract：:To provide background for future hepatitis A vaccine trials, sera were collected from 0- to 4-year-old Liberian infants and their mothers on two occasions an average of 14.75 months apart and tested for antibody to hepatitis A virus (anti-HAV). The prevalence of anti-HAV rose from 2.5% in infants 0-6 months of age to ...
