## 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
Little is known about the immunoglobulin class of antibodies to HBcAg. In the present study sera containing anti-HBc were fractionated by surcose density-gradient centrifugation, and all serum fractions were tested against HBcAg by immunoelectro-osmophoresis. In addition selected fractions were exam
## Abstract The results of a pilot study on the prevalence of antiβHBc in HBsAg negative volunteer blood donors are presented. Two techniques for antiβHBc determination were compared β radioβimmunoassay (RIA) and indirect immunofluorescence (IF). In a panel of 56 sera with known HBV markers, RIA w
Liver transplantation using grafts from donors with antibody against hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) increases the recipients' risk of developing hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection post-transplantation. Our aim was to assess whether using such grafts was associated with reduced posttransplantatio
