Abstract:
Objective To analyse the necessity and feasibility of HCV RNA detection for donor screening.Methods Plasma from 50 donors was mixed into a minipool, the nucleic acid was extracted by NucliSens Extractor and amplified by NASBA, the amplification products were detected by ECL. A performance control and a positive control were coupled with the samples through storage, nucleic acid extraction, amplification and detection.Results Two specimens were found HCV RNA positive in the 10000 anti HCV negative samples.Conclusion HCV RNA screening of plasma minipools by NASBA may prevent hepatitis C virus infection.
