Hepatitis C Virus and its Genotypes detection in Serum Specimens: Clinical Relevance for the Management
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Genetics and Molecular Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
In India, the cases of Hepatitis C Virus are increasing at a very rapid rate. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) often causes persistent infection, and is important factor in the cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Current study focuses on the various factors associated with the HCV infection. Study reveals about the different HCV Genotypic distribution and its RNA viral load in different spectrum. The study also correlates about the evaluation of various other biochemical and serological factors.
