Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes can be established by methods based on PCR typing and serological typing. The accuracy of these methods depends on their sensitivity and specificity. These should be compared with the reference method, direct sequencing, and analysis of viral genomes. Among the sero

The quasispecies nature of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in patients with mixed HCV subtype infection was compared with that in patients with single HCV subtype infection. The number of HCV quasispecies was compared between 35 patients with mixed HCV subtype infection and 83 patients with single subtype i
## Abstract Thyroid dysfunctions are common in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. HCVβRNA has been detected by reverseβtranscription polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in thyroid from HCV infected patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. However, morphological evidence of HCV replicat
Hepatitis C virus shows substantial nucleotide sequence diversity distributed throughout the viral genome. In the present study genotyping for Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected patients was based on RFLP analysis of 5 0 UTR and using type specific primers of NS5B regions. It was observed that 60% of
## Abstract It is unclear whether pregnancy has any influence on chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between pregnancy and parturition with HCV viremia levels and the natural resolution of HCV RNA. Twentyβtwo pregnant patients and 120
