The increasing use of hepatitis B vaccination has had an overwhelming positive impact on the prevention of hepatitis B viral infection. Mutations in the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) gene occur as a result of vaccine escape mutants, anti-hepatitis B surface antigen immunotherapy, or in chronic

The use of monoclonal antibodies in the development of a third generation microtitration plate enzyme immunoassay for the detection of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is described. These antibodies were tested either alone or in combination with polyclonal antibodies raised in rabbit. Horseradish peroxidase
## Abstract The usefulness of fully automated chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (Architect HBsAg QT) for monitoring serum levels of hepatitis B virus (HBV) during antiviral therapy remains unclear. Using this assay, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was measured in 20 patients with chron
A chemiluminescent enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of antibody t o hepatitis B virus surface antigen (anti-HBs) in human serum has been developed.

## Abstract Currently viral antigens and antibodies are detected by traditional serological tests. However, the introduction of oral fluid as an alternative medium would allow other alternatives. The collection of oral fluid is, in comparison with venepuncture, less invasive, less painful, less exp
