Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is one of the main etiological agents of acute and chronic liver disease that is still a major public health problem in the world. Numerous HBV isolates have grouped into eight genotypes, A to H, based on the complete genome sequence. To date, no study has been carried out on

## Abstract Hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been classified into eight genotypes, and several subgenotypes, distinctly distributed geographically. The genotypes A and D were previously reported to be predominant in India. Recent studies indicated evidence of circulation of genotype C in Eastern part of
## Abstract Hepatitis viruses are the leading causes of chronic liver disease resulting in chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma in the world and also in Turkey. Although Turkey has an intermediate rate of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection with a prevalence reported as 5%, a co
## Abstract Although there is a report of high rate of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in South Korea, only a few entire genome sequences of HBV isolates from Korea have been reported. To obtain the complete nucleotide sequence of the Korean HBV, viral DNA was extracted from sera of Korean patien
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes have distinct geographical distribution. HBV sequences among hepatitis B carriers in Malawi have not been evaluated thus far. HBsAg serotype and genotype of HBV was determined in 20 serum samples from Malawian chronic HBV carriers, and two complete genomes and 13 en
