Abstract:
The paper illustrates the results of determination of HBsAg and HCV occurrence in patients blood serum with suspecting viral hepatitis (VH) by usage of immunochromatographic (IC) express-tests of ―Farmasko‖ company. This gives the opportunity to identify the presence of HBV and HCV viruses, and to diagnose VH. IC express-tests results on HBsAg showed 10 (5%) patients analyses out of 201 to be positive for the presence HBV. IC analysis was verified by immunoenzyme analysis (IEA) in 80% patients. IC express-tests results on HCV displayed 46 patients samples (13.6%) out of 343 to be positive on H

Background: Thalassemia is a group of inherited hemoglobinopathies characterized by defective synthesis of alpha or beta globin chains, leading to microcytic hypochromic anemia. Patients with beta thalassemia major require lifelong blood transfusions to maintain adequate hemoglobin levels, increasing their risk of transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) such as hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV). In regions with limited blood screening infrastructure, such as parts of Pakistan, this risk becomes a critical public health concern. Objective: To determine the prevalence of HBV
