Positive HBs antigen in the absence of hepatitis B virus infection [PDF]

Annales de Biologie Clinique, John Libbey Eurotext, 2019, 77 (5), pp.543-548, 2019
French recommendations for the screening of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection were updated in 2019 with the association of three markers: HBs Ag, anti-HBs Ab and anti-HBc Ab. These three markers allow identification of infected patients, vaccinated patients and patients who have been in contact with HBV. A positive HBs Ag is usually associated with HBV
