## Abstract The prevalence of TT virus (TTV) infection in various population groups from Athens, Greece, was assessed by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using two primer sets from distinct regions of the genome: the conventional set derived from the open reading frameβ1 (ORFβ1) and the new, hig

The recently discovered GBV-C/hepatitis G virus (GBV-C/HGV) has been shown to be parenterally transmitted. The occurrence of communityacquired GBV-C/HGV infections has also been reported. In order to study the variations with age of the GBV-C/HGV prevalence, sera from 268 individuals without liver d
## Abstract Early estimates of the prevalence of TTV viremia in healthy adults of developed countries were in the order of 1β10 %, while similar estimates in Third World countries were considerably higher. Using three different PCRs, TTVβrelated DNA was detected in serum from 180 out of the 201 Nor
## Abstract The HIVβ1 genetic variability in Bahia state, Brazil, was investigated. DNA samples from 229 and 213 HIVβ1βinfected individuals were analyzed using the heteroduplex mobility assay (HMA) in __gag__ and __env__ fragments, respectively. One hundred seventyβfive samples were characterized i
We studied the prevalence of TT virus (TTV) DNA in the general population of the eastern Taiwan aborigine villages, about 11% (34 of 317). There is no association between the presence of HBsAg and TTV DNA or betwen the presence of HCV RNA and TTV DNA. Therefore, the infection of HBV or HCV and the p
