## Abstract Interpretation of antibody to hepatitis C virus (HCV) in patients with liver disease is difficult due to false‐positive reactivity in some conditions. To evaluate the feasibility of HCV in archival material, HCV was sought in formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded liver biopsy specimens. Nes
## Abstract A procedure is described for the detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA in blood by means of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in which the reverse transcription step and two rounds of amplification are carried out in a single tube. This results in fewer manipulations, reduced risk
