## Abstract Because of widely differing reports on the significance of IgM antiβHBc in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, paired sera and liver biopsies from 49 patients with chronic HBV infection were analysed for serum IgM antiβHBc, HBsAg titre, HBeAgiantiβHBe, HBV DNA, serum aspartate tr

Serum IgM anti-HBc was determined in 135 chronic HBsAg carriers with various categories of histological activity on liver biopsy and hepatitis B serological profile. Thirty-three patients were treated with interferon-a to investigate the correlation between serum IgM anti-HBc with histological activ
Sera from four groups of patients with different serologic markers of HBV infection were examined for HBV DNA using molecular hybridization technique and for IgM class anti-HBc using an ELISA based on the antibody capture principle. Results of HBV DNA assay were generally in good agreement with the
