Özet

Objectives: Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-DNA level is a good marker for viral replication and should be monitored at regular intervals in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). The objective of this study is to compare the performance of Qiagen HBV-DNA kit with Iontek HBV-DNA kit and to determine the usability of Iontek.
