  1. HBV DNA in serum and liver samples was detected by FQ-PCR, the result of HBV DNA in serum was expressed as copy/ml, in liver was expressed as copy/μg liver DNA. Serum HBsAg was detected by ELISA and TRFIA, while HBsAb, HBeAg, HBeAb and HBcAb were detected by ELISA only. The results of ELISA were expressed as “+” (positive), “-” (negative) or “±” (between positive and negative). The result of TRFIA was expressed as ng/ml. “/” Indicated there was no test at that time point.
