摘要：

In order to study the asymptomatic hepatitis C virus (HCV)-positive blood donors in Israel we analyzed their sera for HCV-RNA using the polymerase chain reaction technique. We found that 0.44% of blood donors were anti-HCV positive. Of those who had repeatedly positive anti-HCV, 82% had evidence of HCV-RNA. One-third of them had elevated liver enzymes, but no detectable cryoglobulins were found in their sera. Although HCV-RNA was detected in the majority of the patients, we were unable to demonstrate vertical or horizontal transmission among the family members of our carrier population.
