RÉSUMÉ
【Objective】 To analyze the correlation of HBV serological characteristics between non-reproducible reactivity (NRR) samples and occult hepatitis B virus infection (OBI) samples for blood screening. 【Methods】 A total of 144 samples with negative ELISA (HBV, HCV and HIV test) results and reactive nucleic acid tests(NAT) were collected from January 2021 to January 2023 in Anhui Blood Center, including 92 reactive samples by TMA method (combined ID-NAT) and 52 HBV DNA reactive samples by PCR method (ID-NAT). Supplementary differential testing and ID-NAT by PCR were performed on the reactive samples of the combined ID-NAT, samples that were non-reactive by both differential testing and ID-NAT by PCR were included in the NRR group, and samples that were reactive for HBV DNA detected by either method were included in the OBI group. Supplemented with HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe and anti-HBc tests, the differences in serological pattern and positive rate between NRR samples and OBI samples were analyzed. 【Results】 A total of 53 samples were negative for differential testing and ID-NAT and were included in the NRR group, 91 samples were detected as HBV DNA reactive in either method and were included in the OBI group. HBsAg and HBeAg were not detected by serological testing in either group. The detection rates of anti-HBs, anti-HBc and anti-HBe in the NRR group and the OBI group were 64.15% vs 47.25%, 86.79% vs 94.51%, 35.85% vs 52.75%, respectively. Comparison of serological patterns between the two groups: the most frequent pattern in the NRR group was anti-HBs (+ ) and anti-HBc (+ ) (32.08%), and the most frequent pattern in the OBI group was anti-HBe (+ ) and anti-HBc (+ ) (37.36%). 【Conclusion】 There were differences in some of the test results between the NRR samples and the OBI samples in HBV serological testing, and higher anti-HBc positive rate in the NRR samples suggests a higher possibility of HBV infection.
RÉSUMÉ
【Objective】 To retrospectively analyze the detection results of blood donors with HBsAg reactivity to single reagent detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in our center, so as to provide basis for further consolidating the blood donor team. 【Methods】 Samples of blood donors who had been deferred for at least 6 months due to HBsAg reactivity to sole ELISA assay were collected, and HBsAg ELISA and NAT were further performed. Meanwhile, HBsAg/HBsAb/HBeAg/HBeAb/HBcAb were detected by Roche electrochemiluminescence immunoassay, and the results were statistically analyzed. 【Results】 Among these 51 selected samples, 45 were negative to two assays, 6 were reactive to sole assay, with reactivity-yield rate at 11.76% (6/51). The results of NAT/ECLIA were all negative. For five indicators of hepatitis B virus infection, 23 samples were all negative and 28 were partially positive, mainly anti-HBs, anti-HBc and anti-HBe. 【Conclusion】 The follow-up detection of HBsAg ELISA sole-reagent reactive samples, supplemented with the detection of HBV serological markers, can reduce the number of deferred blood donors, increase the willingness to donate blood again, and protect the rights and interests of blood donors.

【Objective】 To investigate the characteristics of HBV serological markers of NAT reactive blood donors under different HBsAg status. 【Methods】 NAT reactive samples, with HBsAg-, HBsAg+ /retest - and HBsAg+ by single reagent were collected from September 2021 to May 2022 in our laboratory. The TMA non-reactive samples were retested by Roche PCR, then HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe and anti-HBc were detected by ECLI for statistical analysis. 【Results】 A total of 66 samples were collected, among which 55 were HBsAg-/NAT+. The positive rate of anti-HBc, anti-HBs+ anti-HBc, anti-HBe+ anti-HBc was 87.3% (48/55), 43.6% (24/55) and 45.5% (25/55), respectively. The positive rate of anti-HBs was 10.9% (6/55) and the overall negative rate was 1.8% (1/55). In 7 HBsAg+ initially/retest -/NAT+ samples, the positive rate of anti-HBc was 100%(7/7), and the positive rate of anti-HBe+ anti-HBc was 71.4%(5/7). In 4 HBsAg+ /NAT+ samples by single reagent, the positive rate of HBsAg+ anti-HBs+ anti-HBe+ anti-HBc was 50% (2/4), and positive rate of anti-HBe+ anti-HBc was100% (4/4). Samples, not reactive to TMA discriminatory and anti-HBc negative, were also non-reactive to individual PCR retest. There were significant differences in the positive rates of anti-HBe+ anti-HBc between HBsAg-/NAT+ samples and HBsAg+ /NAT+ (single reagent) samples (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Most HBsAg-/NAT+ blood donors were occult hepatitis B virus infection.The anti-HBe+ anti-HBc positive were correlated with HBV infection status. Non-reactivity discriminated by TMA plus anti-HBc negative do not exclude HBV DNA non-reactivity.
RÉSUMÉ
【Objective】 To explore the status of HBV infection and low viral load of HBV DNA in blood donor samples implicated in TMA triplex reactive but discriminatory test non-reactive samples. 【Methods】 A total of 51 996 samples were detected by Procleix Panther nucleic acid detection(NAT) system from January 2020 to March 2021, and 86 of them were TMA triplex reactive but discriminatory test non-reactive. HBV serological markers (HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe, anti-HBc) were detected by electrochemiluminescence. Single-donation(ID) NAT was conducted in some TMA triplex + /discriminatory test-samples using Roche NAT. 【Results】 Out of 86 TMA triplex + /discriminatory test-samples, anti-HBc were positive in 89.53% (77/86), anti-HBe positive in 27.90% (24/86) and anti-HBs positive in 65.12% (56/86). 15 donors carried anti-HBs, anti-HBe and anti-HBc, 34 both anti-HBs and anti-HBc, 1 both anti-HBs/anti-HBe, 8 both anti-HBe/anti-HBc, 6 solo anti-HBs, and 20 solo anti-HBc. The positive rate of HBV serological markers was 97.67% (84/86). HBV DNA in 5 out of the 10 samples was qualitatively detected by Roche ID NAT, and one of them presented HBV DNA < 20 IU/mL. 【Conclusion】 Most TMA triplex + /discriminatory test-samples were occult hepatitis B infection.
