Abstract DNA hybridization and cell separation techniques were used to determine which blood components contained hepatitis B viral DNA sequences. Free monomer-length hepatitis B virus was found in large amounts in the polymorphonuclear leukocyte cell fraction in two of five HBsAG-positive patients. In these two patients, viral DNA sequences were not detected in the plasma or platelet fraction, whereas the mononuclear cell DNA contained small amounts of a 7.2 kb size unintegrated hepatitis B genome. These studies indicate that the major reservoir of unit-length viral DNA in the asymptomatic hepatitis B carriers studied here was in the polymorphonuclear leukocyte fraction. The basis for the presence of the viral DNA within these cells is presently unknown, but may relate to viral replication within, or phagocytosis of virus by, these cells.

The purpose of this work was to design the electrochemical DNA biosensor based on carbon nanofibers (CNFs) for detecting hepatitis B virus (HBV). The CNFs, due to high conductivity and surface-to-volume ratio, was known as an effective material in the electrochemical biosensor. In this work, we directly used electrospun CNF as the electrode. CNF electrode was modified with electropolymerized glutamic acid (Glu). Then, the probe DNA (pDNA) was conjugated to Glu modified CNFs electrode. The surface morphology of CNFs and Glu modified CNFs were characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Electropolymerized Glu on the surface of CNF electrode was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) as well. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to monitor the target DNA (tDNA). The tDNA was quantified at a linear range from 1 × 10-12 to 1 × 10-6 M with a detection limit of 1.58 × 10-12 M. This electrochemical HBV biosensor had good stability, repeatability, and selectivity for distinguishing complementary DNA from non-complementary and mis-matched DNA sequences.
