[An evaluation of the sensitivity of commercial ELISA kits for the detection of HBsAg].

The sensitivity of seven commercial diagnostic kits for HBsAg detection was compared using the positive controls of the kits and a series of positive serum samples. No significant differences of sensitivity were noted between the kits, but there were some in the total reaction time and the facility of execution.

[The inverse passive hemagglutination reaction. An evaluation of preliminary trials].

Studies were conducted on inverse passive haemagglutination to work out more sensitive methods for the detection of serological markers of the hepatitis B virus (HBV). IgG were coupled to human red blood corpuscles (RBC) and some parameters of the RBC sensitization, to the coupling and of the test itself were investigated.

Some pathogenic features of viral hepatitis.

Some pathogenic features of viral hepatitis (VH) are analysed on the ground of literature data and personal results. Correlations concerning blood group distribution in the case of apparently asymptomatic HBsAg carriage and of acute and chronic VH, as well as correlations with individual characteristics such as age and sex a.o., are presented. The possibility that other genetic and epigenetic factors may help to a better knowledge of VH pathogeny is discussed.

Diversity of the anti-HBc response and its correlations with other immunological parameters in asymptomatic HBsAg carriers.

The anti-HBc response was investigated by immunofluorescence in the sera of 109 asymptomatic HBsAg carriers. The results suggest the presence of at least two antigenic HBcAg determinants, possibly correlated with the replication phase. The subjects with intensive anti-HBc response showed immunological alterations consistent with the presence of active liver lesions and of hepatocellular membrane injury.
