Hepatitis B surface antigen in late hepatitis B infection
Journal of Medical Virology, 2014Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) levels are used to evaluate and monitor clinical phases of chronic hepatitis B infection but their clinical significance is unclear in the late complications, cirrhosis of the liver and hepatocellular carcinoma. This study aimed to evaluate HBsAg levels across the whole natural history of hepatitis B virus infection,

Loss of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) usually indicates that hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has been cured. However, little is known about factors predicting HBsAg loss in patients who spontaneously clear hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg).We studied 390 Taiwanese HBeAg-positive patients with chronic hepatitis who had spontaneously cleared HBeAg ...

Two commercial quantitative immunoassay platforms are currently available for the detection of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) within a wide range of concentrations: the Architect HBsAg assay and the Elecsys HBsAg II. However, there are limited data concerning their performance in patients who are positive for both HBsAg and anti-HBs antibodies. In

The objective of this study was to determine factors associated with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroclearance after hepatitis B e-antigen (HBeAg) seroclearance.This is a cohort study of HBeAg-positive patients with HBeAg seroclearance. Factors associated with subsequent HBsAg seroclearance were examined.A total of 775 patients were included ...

Antibodies to Hepatitis B Surface Antigen
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1985Excerpt To the editor: The article by Kessler and colleagues (1) is of general interest because it shows, once again, that antibodies to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs), at least as they are...

Thyroxine Binding by Hepatitis B Surface Antigen
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1975Thyroxine and triiodothyronine binding sites are present on the 20-nm spherical particles associated with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). Thyroxine-treated HBsAg has a buoyant density of 1.26 g/cm-3 in CsCl and appears under the electron microscope as a hexagonal particle with a center-to-vertex distance of 10 nm.

Hepatitis B surface antigen in spinal fluid
Medical and Pediatric Oncology, 1980AbstractHepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was detected in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of five of nine leukemia patients with HBsAg‐positive sera. These five CSF samples were shown to be free of occult blood using a sensitive hemoglobin extraction technique.

The Detection of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen by Radioimmunoassay
Pathology, 1975A comparative study was performed to assess the sensitivity and specificity of counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIEP) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) for the detection of hepatitis B surface antigen. The 8,823 sera examined included selected reference panels and sera collected from populations with low, moderate and high rates of chronic antigen carriage ...

Thermal Inactivation of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen
The Journal of Immunology, 1978Abstract Thermal inactivation of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs Ag) was investigated under various experimental conditions by means of a quantitative radioimmunoassay. No decrease of HBs Ag immunologic reactivity could be detected at -80°C, up to 24 months of storage, whereas at -20 and 4°C survival of serum HBs Ag after 6 months was ...

The incidence of hepatitis B surface antigen in Nigeria
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1979We have determined the incidence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in an urban (Enugu) and a rural (Okpatu) population groups in Nigeria. There were no statistically significant differences between the incidence in the two populations. Contrary to earlier reports we did not observe any significant age-related differences in the incidence rates ...
