Prevalence of hepatitis B e antigen and its antibody as detected by radioimmunoassays.

Abstract:

:A solid-phase radioimmunoassay (RIA) for the detection of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and antibody (anti-HBe) was developed. The RIA was approximately 1,000-fold more sensitive than rheophoresis for HBeAg, and approximately 6,000-fold more sensitive than rheophoresis for anti-HBe. Generally, less than one-fifth of hepatitis B antigen (HBsAg)-positive sera from blood donors were positive for either HBeAg or anti-HBe by rheophoresis; in contrast, more than 90% of the samples were positive by the RIA method. The ratio of HBeAg to anti-HBe among HBsAg carriers varied in different geographic localities. Also, the presence of HBeAg correlated directly with the titer of HBsAg and the presence of Dane core particles. Anti-HBe was associated with lower titers of serum HBsAg.
