## Abstract The presence of both hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA and HBV antigens (HBsAg, HBeAg) was assessed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from 32 patients chronically infected with HBV. Three different molecular forms of HBV DNA were observed: free monomers (5), high‐molecular‐weight f

## Abstract The integration of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in the liver of chronic HBV carriers has been documented extensively. However, the status of the viral genome during acute infection has not been assessed conclusively. While HBV DNA sequences are detected often in serum, liver, and periphe
In situ hybridisation was used to detect RNA of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) in peripheral mononuclear blood cells. Presence of HBV-RNA was detected in 10/17 HBsAg positive HBeAg positive patients, in S/ 18 HBsAg positive HBeAg negative patients, in 1 /3 anti-HBs positive subjects. Four control subjects
