## Abstract The acute and convalescent sera from 14 schoolchildren with acute hepatitis A were tested for antibody changes to 70 viral antigens. Marked decreases were noted in the levels of antibody to cytomegalovirus in 5 of the 14 children and in the levels of antibody to herpesvirus type 1 in 3.
## Abstract The relationship of hepatitis A virus (HAV) isolates associated with an outbreak in Genoa, Italy, in 1993 was examined using direct sequencing of amplicons derived by antigen capture PCR (AC/ PCR) from faecal samples of the infected persons. Forty samples recovered from 38 primary and t
## Abstract The use of urine as a noninvasive specimen for the diagnosis of hepatitis A (HAV) and hepatitis B (HBV) virus infections was investigated. Specimens of urine were collected at the same time as blood or saliva specimens, or singly in cases of previously serologically confirmed recent inf
