## Abstract A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐based assay using primers against the hepatitis C core gene has been described [Okamoto et al. (1992a): __Journal of General Virology__ 73:673–679]. Within the two major HCV genotypes 1 and 2, the Okamoto system identifies two subtypes each (1a,1 b and

## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) exhibits considerable sequence variability and circulates in the blood at extremely low levels. Current methods for detecting HCV RNA are based mostly on nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR), in which part of the first amplification product is reamplified in th
