Naturally occurring hepatitis B surface gene variants in chronic hepatitis B virus infection: correlation with viral serotypes and clinical stages of liver disease.

abstract：:The ability of hepatitis A virus (HAV) to agglutinate human erythrocytes was used to develop IgM and IgG antibody capture haemadherence tests (MACHAT and GACHAT). Haemadherence was dependent on the pH of the red cell suspension and was best in the pH range 5.4 to 5.8. The tests were applied to serum, urine, and saliva...
