Development of a Quantitative Real-Time Detection Assay for Hepatitis B Virus DNA and Comparison with Two Commercial Assays
Open accessAbstract
A highly reproducible and sensitive real-time detection assay based on TaqMan technology was developed for the detection of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA and compared with two commercially available assays. The assay was validated with the Viral Quality Control panel, which also includes EUROHEP HBV DNA standards. This real-time PCR detection system had a dynamic range of 373 to 10 10 genome copies per ml and showed an excellent correlation with both the commercial HBV Digene Hybrid Capture II microplate assay (Digene Diagnostics) and the HBV MONITOR assay (Roche Diagnostics). To demonstrate its clinical utility, four chronically HBV-infected patients treated with lamuvidine were monitored using the three different assays. From the results we concluded that this assay is an excellent alternative for monitoring of HBV-infected patients in routine diagnostics and clinical practice, enabling the analysis of a large dynamic range of HBV DNA in a single, undiluted sample.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
