The incidence of non-A, non-B hepatitis in a cardiovascular surgical unit was examined among the 204 patients who received blood transfusion and extracorporeal circulation while undergoing open heart surgery during April 1979 to December 1981. Among 115 adult patients (20 to 69 years old) 46 (43%) d
Non-A, non-B (NANB) viral hepatitis was successfully transmitted to two colony-born Tamarins following inoculation with antihaemophilic factor VIII concentrate or the "H" inoculum. Both animals showed histological and ultrastructural evidence of viral hepatitis, with raised alanine aminotransferase
To further investigate the specificity of the monoclonal antibodies (48-1 and S-1) associated with non-A, non-B hepatitis, extensive immunofluoreecence studies were performed on liver biopsy specimens from chimpanzees with experimental hepatitis A, B, non-A, non-B or 6, or from normal chimpanzees.

Electron microscopic observations were carried out on five HBsAg carrier chimpanzees infected with delta (delta) agent and two chimpanzees infected with human non-A, non-B hepatitis. The cytoplasmic tubular structures, which have been recognized in the liver of chimpanzees infected with human non-A,
