Background and Aims: Hepatitis C virus is one of the viral infections which is mainly transmitted by blood transfusion. Patients with thalassaemia frequently need blood transfusion and are in danger of HCV infection. In most cases of infection (85%) the virus evades the immune system and establishes a chronic infection that may lead to cirrhosis and liver carcinoma. Liver is the main site of HC...

BACKGROUND The prevalence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotype 3 infections in the English population (including blood donors) is unknown, but is probably widespread, and the virus has been detected in pooled plasma products. HEV-infected donors have been retrospectively identified through investigation of reported cases of possible transfusion-transmitted hepatitis E. The frequency of HEV trans...

Aim: Overall the risk of transfusion transmitted infections has decreased, especially viral infections like HIV and hepatitis B and C. Bacterial contamination of blood and its cellular components, however, remains a common microbiological cause of transfusion associated morbidity and mortality. Platelets pose a special risk given their preservation methods. The incidence of these episodes needs...

SINCE DECEMBER 1982, when it became clear that Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) could be transmitted by blood transfusion, the blood bankers and their federal regulators have been unwaveringly optimistic that the spread of this lethal new disease by transfusion could be controlled. In June 1983, Edward Carr, the president of the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB) said "there i...

The name of the disease is said to be derived from the Portuguese word dengue which means fastidious or vain, which would describe the disturbed gait of an infected person suffering from muscle and bone pain (see also English: ‘dandy’). Dengue virus and dengue haemorrhagic fever virus are synonyms. The dengue fever virus (DENV) is a member of the genus of the 53 flaviviruses and ranks among the...

West Nile virus (WNV) is an emerging flavivirus that has caused frequent epidemics since 1996. Besides natural transmission by mosquitoes, WNV can also be transmitted through blood transfusion and organ transplantation, thus heightening the urgency of development of a specific and rapid serologic assay of WNV infection. The current immunoassays lack specificity because they are based on detecti...

Hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) are transfusion-transmitted human pathogens that have a major impact on blood safety and public health worldwide. We developed a microarray multiplex assay for the simultaneous detection and discrimination of these three viruses. The microarray consists of 16 oligonucleotide probes, immobilized on ...
