Hepatitis C virus (HCV) shows substantial nucleotide sequence diversity distributed
throughout the viral genome, with many variants showing only 68–79% overall sequence …

HCV isolates from around the world show substantial nucleotide sequence variability
throughout the viral genome. Based on the identification of these genome differences …

Hepatitis C virus shows substantial nucleotide sequence diversity distributed throughout the
viral genome. In the present study genotyping for Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected patients …

A new genotyping system was established for the specific detection of HCV genotypes 1a,
1b, 1c, 2a, 2b, 2c, 3a, 3b, 3c, 4a–h, 5a and 6a during the course of this study. The system is …

A second generation assay for antibody to hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV) was used to screen
78 southern Indian individuals with a high risk of infection. RT-PCR targeted at the 5′ end …

The usefulness of identification of hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype has recently been
investigated for the clinical management of patients infected by HCV. In the present study …

Nine (10%) out of 90 hepatitis C virus (HCV) isolates from hepatitis patients and commercial
blood donors in Thailand were not classifiable into any of genotypes I/1a, II/1b, III/2a, IV/2b …

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a causative agent of chronic liver disease,
cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. In Pakistan, more than 10 million people are living …

The characterization of hepatitis C virus (HCV) strains has important prognostic, therapeutic,
and epidemiologic implications. The present study was intended to determine the HCV …
