World Hepatitis Day CDC statistics show that Hepatitis infects hundreds of millions of people across the globe, causing about 1.4 million deaths to people who progress to chronic hepatitis infections. There are five types of Hepatitis all caused by different viruses. They are Hepatitis A, B, C...

certain toxins, some medications, some medical conditions, and frequently, a viral infection. Hepatitis B testing looks for the presence of an infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Over 800,000 people live with hepatitis B, and a majority are not even aware that they are infected. Hep...
The HCV genome also encodes several non-structural proteins known as NS1-5(a/b). NS3-5 are commonly used together as antigens in immunoassays for the detection of anti-HCV in patient blood samples [5]. For these assays, the antigens are used to capture the patient’s antibodies that ...

CDC: All Adults Should Be Tested for Hepatitis B at Least Once in Their Lifetime How Is the Test Done? A HBsAg test is performed by a phlebotomist using a venous blood draw. Blood is usually taken by inserting a needle into a vein at the inside of the elbow or back of the hand. ...
B cells [27,28,29]. Thus, anti-HBc is useful for population-based HBV screening to determine exposure rates, and should be part of HBV testing panels for all patients in any population deemed at risk by current WHO or CDC guidelines to allow for better interpretation of results and ...

To address the requirement of membrane association, we engineered a dsSIN recombinant containing the truncated core sequence fused with a C-terminal CAAX box sequence derived from cdc42, a small GTPase (core152:CAAX). Such a CAAX box is known to provide membrane localization to proteins via lip...
