Genetic Characteristic of Virus C Hepatitis in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia)
Abstract
A genetic characteristics of virus C hepatitis in the Republic Sakha (Yakutia) is presented. Genotyping of virus C hepatitis was carried out in the laboratory of the Central Research Institute of Epidemiology of the Federal Service of Supervision in the Sphere of Protection of the Rights and Well-being of Consumers (Rospotrebnadzor) of the Russian Federation (Moscow) with application of PCR-test-system. This test-system allows identification of 4 genotypes of virus C hepatitis: 1a, 1b, 2a, 3a. During 2007-2010 163 samples of viral RNA of the chronic hepatitis C patients from the Republic Sakha (Yakutia) were genotyped.
