## Abstract HBsAg binds to a solidβphase adsorbent consisting of polymerized human serum albumin (HSA) on glass particles. Both AD and AY antigenic subtypes of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) display this interaction. In either case, the binding to polymerized HSA is reduced in the presence of

Receptors for polymerised human albumin are present on the pre-S sequence of the envelope protein of HBV and on the hepatocyte membrane and are thought to be involved in uptake of the virus by hepatocytes. Using a solid phase radioimmunoassay we demonstrate binding of HBsAg to polymerised human seru
## Abstract There is considerable evidence that substances other than immunoglobulins can bind human Clq. Utilizing purified human Clq immobilized on polystyrene beads, we have demonstrated that polymerized human albumin (PHALBβ^125^I) binds to human Clq in a direct binding assay. This interaction
An antibody, which is distinct from the HBsAg, and reacts with antigenic sites on Dane particles HBcAg and HBeAg, was studied by radioimmunoprecipitation of radioactive intact hepatitis B virions in sera obtained early in the course of acute hepatitis type B. The antibody, previously termed anti-Dan
