HBsAg bound to IgM was measured in the serum of HBsAg carriers with acute hepatitis using a radioimmunoassay based on selective absorption of IgM on solid phase coated with antiserum to human IgM. HBsAgiIgM was detected in 94 (100%) patients with acute type B hcpatitk during the acute phase of infe
