摘要：
Acute hepatitis E infection was diagnosed in a Pakistani immigrant admitted to the University of Illinois Hospital. Utilizing enzyme immunoassay (EIA) tests, specific IgG and IgM class antibodies to three different epitopes of hepatitis E virus (HEV) were detected 12 weeks after the onset of illness and in the early convalescent stage. Sixteen months after the onset of hepatitis, IgM anti-HEV was no longer detectable. Low levels of IgG class anti-HEV antibodies continued to be detected. We demonstrate the utility of the EIA HEV assay to diagnose prospectively acute HEV infection. © 1994 Plenum Publishing Corporation.
