Background/Aims: A novel virus, designated the TT virus (TTV), was isolated from the serum
of a patient with posttransfusion hepatitis of unknown etiology, in Japan. Subsequently, TTV …

Recently, a new single‐stranded DNA virus (TT virus, TTV) has been isolated and related to
post‐transfusion hepatitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of TTV in …

TT virus (TTV) is an unenveloped, single‐stranded DNA virus that was discovered recently
in the sera of Japanese patients with posttransfusion hepatitis of unknown etiology. A high …

Background: In 1997 a new human virus, TTV, was identified. The clinical significance of the
TTV infection, however, remains unknown. Objective: Establishment of the prevalence of …

When TT virus (TTV) DNA was quantitated in whole blood and plasma aliquots from 27
viremic individuals by real-time detection PCR that can detect essentially all TTV genotypes …

Abstract A novel DNA virus, TT-virus (TTV), has been reported in patients with non-AG
posttransfusion hepatitis in Japan. We sought to determine whether TTV infection occurs in …

Previous reports documented the recovery of a DNA virus from a patient with posttransfusion
non-A–G hepatitis and named TT virus (TTV). Although the virus was initially detected as a …

Background. Recently, TT virus (TTV) was discovered as a potential causative agent for non-
AE hepatitis. Little is known about the prevalence of TTV infection in renal transplant …

Background/Aims: Although a novel DNA virus, TT virus (TTV), has been isolated from a
patient with cryptogenic post-transfusion hepatitis, its pathogenic role remains unclear. To …

The TT virus (TTV) is a non‐enveloped, single‐stranded, circular, DNA virus, first isolated
from a patient with hepatitis of unexplained etiology. The much deliberated pathological role …
