Incazelo enemininingwane
Igciwane le-Hepatitis C (HCV) lake labizwa ngokuthi igciwane elingelona i-hepatitis B elidluliselwa ngaphandle kwamathumbu, futhi kamuva lahlukaniswa njengohlobo lwegciwane le-hepatitis C emndenini we-flavivirus, elidluliselwa kakhulu ngegazi noketshezi lomzimba.Amasosha omzimba e-Hepatitis C virus (HCV-Ab) akhiqizwa ngenxa yamangqamuzana omzimba omzimba asabela ekuthelelekeni kwegciwane le-hepatitis C.Ukuhlolwa kwe-HCV-Ab kuwukuhlola okusetshenziswa kabanzi kakhulu ophenyweni lwe-hepatitis C lwe-epidemiological, ukuhlolwa komtholampilo kanye nokuxilongwa kweziguli ze-hepatitis C.Izindlela zokuhlonza ezivame ukusetshenziswa zihlanganisa ukuhlaziya i-enzyme-linked immunosorbent, i-agglutination, i-radioimmunoassay kanye ne-chemiluminescence immunoassay, i-composite western blotting kanye nokuhlolwa kwe-spot immunochromatography, phakathi kwayo i-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay iyindlela evame ukusetshenziswa kakhulu ekusebenzeni komtholampilo.I-HCV-Ab eqondile iwuphawu lokutheleleka nge-HCV.
