Serum TTV DNA was assayed in 140 native Indians and 40 members of the general population in Colombia to determine the prevalence of TT virus (TTV) infection among Colombian native Indians. Of the 140 native Indians, 23 (16.4%) were positive for TTV DNA, compared to 4 (10.0%) of 40 from the general p

Five patients with type B or C hepatocellular carcinoma were found to be infected with a nonenveloped DNA virus (TTV) associated with posttransfusion hepatitis of non-A-G etiology. Paired feces and serum samples from these patients were tested for TTV DNA by polymerase chain reaction with seminested
## Abstract A single oral dose of the diuretic chlorthalidone (100 or 200 mg) was given to six cholecystectomized patients with Tβtube drainage of the common bile duct, and the 24 h bile and urine were collected during 3β7 days. Urinary recovery of chlorthalidone was 23β27 per cent of the dose, whi
TT virus (TTV) is a novel viral agent, detected recently in non-A to E hepatitis cases. Little is known about its natural history or routes of transmission in childhood. For the detection of serum TTV DNA, semi-nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out using TTVspecific primers and TTV
