## 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

IgM antibody against core antigen of the hepatitis B virus (anti-HBc IgM) was selectively determined by a new enzyme immunoassay (EIA). Microtiter plates were coated with anti-human micro chain immunoglobulin. On addition of serum IgM is bound by a factor of about 4,000 more than IgG. After removing
## Abstract A solidβphase radioimmunoassay (RIA) for IgM antiβHBc is described. The assay (antiβmΜ RIA) is based on the adsorption of IgM to a tube coated with sheep antibody to the human IgM mΜβchain. The adsorbed immunoglobulin is assayed for antiβHBc activity. Positive reactions in the test are
