[Prevalence of serological markers for viral hepatitis B and C in patients and medical personnel in the hematologic ward of Novosibirsk city hospital No. 2].
Blood samples of 60 patients and 19 staff members were tested for serological markers of hepatitides B (HBV) and C (HBC) using the Vector-Best JSC enzyme immunoassay kits. HBV and HBC markers were found in 25 in 30% of patients and in 15.8 and 5.3% of staff members, respectively. Part of the sera with HBV and HBC markers were tested for the HBV and HBC RNAs by polymerase chain reaction. The findings confirm that donors should be more thoroughly tested for hepatitis markers, as well as the patients and staff of hematology departments.
