چکیده

background and objectives: hbv dna monitoring is important in management of chronic viral hepatitis b infection. hbv dna measurements are carried out over period of months to years. so the analytical system must be stable and reproducible. the aim of this study was to determine the performance characteristics and to plan a statistical quality control system of a laboratory-developed real-time quantitative pcr assay for hbv dna quantification.methods: values of systematic and random error at two clinical decision points;4.2 log iu/ml (20000 iu/ml) and 3.2 log iu/ml (2000 iu/ml) were determined. candidate quality control procedures were selected and performance of the method by application of normalized operational process specification (opspecs) charts was determined.results: the performance of the assay at level of 4.2 log iu/ml and 3.2 log iu/ml were excellent and good respectively. moreover, a13.5s rule with two measurements offered 90% probability of error detection at level of 4.2 log iu/ml, while no rule offered 90% probability of error detection at level of 3.2 log iu/ml.conclusion: minimizing the formation of primer-dimer and nonspecific products and concentrating the target dna during the purification process are proposed for accurate quantitative pcr particularly when ct values are high.

Viral Load Pattern Among Hepatitis B Surface Antigen-positive Patients: Laboratory Perspective and Implications for Therapy.

BACKGROUND Hepatitis B viral infection is an old medical problem with worldwide distribution. It is usually diagnosed using serologic methods. However, the decision as to which patient to treat or not remains challenging due to the poor sensitivity of serologic markers as prognostic or severity markers. Viral load (VL) determination using polymerase chain reaction techniques is a useful tool in...

Hepatitis B virus DNA viral load determination in hepatitis B surface antigen-negative Swiss blood donors.

BACKGROUND Nucleic acid test (NAT) hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening for all blood donations with a sensitivity limit of 25 IU/mL in the individual donation is mandatory in Switzerland since 2009. The aims of the two studies were to define the percentage of antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) or anti-HBc and antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs)-positive donors bearing ...
