## Abstract The prevalence of antibody to hepatitis C virus (HCV) was studied in 207 patients with chronic liver disease of unknown etiology, in relation to clinical, epidemiological and histological features. Serum antibody to Cβ100 epitope of HCV was detected by ELISA in 82.6% of patients, with a
To assess possible role of testing for IgM-specific antibody in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with hepatitis C, we tested sera from 14 patients with acute and 97 patients with chronic non-A, non-B hepatitis for IgG and IgM antibody to hepatitis C virus.
