S Medhi, SK Potukuchi, SK Polipalli, SS Swargiary… - Clinical …, 2008 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Patients undergoing hemodialysis are at high risk for Hepatitis C virus
infection. Anti-HCV antibody detection is widely used for screening this infection but is not
sensitive for window period detection. An ELISA to detect the HCV Core Antigen has
recently become available. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the utility of the HCV core Antigen
ELISA in the detection of HCV infection in hemodialysis patients and to compare with 3rd
generation ELISA validated by real-time PCR. METHODS: Two hundred fifty hemodialysis …
