To ensure high quality of food and water, the identification of traces of pathogens is mandatory. Rapid nucleic acid-based tests shorten traditional detection times while maintaining low detection ...

HDV: Hepatitis delta virus ... The numbering of the preS amino acids refers to genotype D. The highly conserved sequence between amino acids 9-18 contained are essential for infection inhibition ...

Twinrix. Food and Drug Administration. Vaxelis. Kruszon-Moran D, Paulose-Ram R, Martin CB, Barker L, McQuillan G. Prevalence and trends in hepatitis B virus infection in the United States, 2015–2018.

Privately-held US biopharma Bluejay Therapeutics has announced that its lead product candidate brelovitug—also known as BJT-778—has received US Food and Drug Administration Breakthrough Therapy ...

Patients with HIV and hepatitis B coinfection are at an increased risk for hepatitis D. Patients with hepatitis D have an increased risk for liver-related complications and mortality. Patients ...

Hepatitis C can be transmitted when blood that carries the virus comes into contact with the blood of someone who does not have the virus. This can occur if people share needles or personal care ...

Hepatitis E, a potentially serious viral liver disease, is transmitted through contaminated water. The risk is particularly high in populations with limited access to safe water and sanitation.

Vitamin D levels can be measured with a blood test. This test can indicate whether you have adequate levels, are at risk of a vitamin D deficiency, or have levels that are too high. Levels that are ...

Autonomous nanocomputing agents made of nucleic acids and proteins are an appealing idea, and two decades of research has shown that the engineered agents act under real physical and biochemical ...

Recent data report that HDV IgM levels correlate with histological inflammatory activity, and support the use of quantitative anti-HDV IgM as an indicator of disease activity in hepatitis D.
