## Abstract Ongoing subclinical infection of hepatitis E virus (HEV) has not been fully studied. In the present study, serum samples were collected from 6700 voluntary blood donors with an elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level of 61β476 IU/l at a Japanese Red Cross Blood Center, and were te
## Abstract Serum samples from 1,765 consecutive Sardinian blood donors, negative for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and for antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (antiβHIV), were evaluated for the presence of antibodies to hepatitis C virus (antiβHCV) by secondβgeneration ELISA. An
## Abstract Surface antigen negative hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection was evaluated in Venezuela, by molecular characterization of blood samples positive for antibodies to core antigen (antiβHBc) and negative for surface antigen (HBsAg) in blood donors (residual infections). HBV DNA was found in 1
