Abstract:
The results of project "RAS/6/018" have shown that the rate of HBsAg carriers among normal people was 10.6-15.1%. The rate of HBsAg among blood donors was 1.3%, lower 10 times than this of general population. Frequency of HBV infection, HBV and HIV infection was high among patients with chronic hepatitis. There were markers of HBsAg and HBeAg of transmission from mother to her children among chronic viral hepatitis B carriers due to the uncompleted immunological structure and function.
