[Hepatitis B virus DNA polymerase].

Abstract

Our aim was to discuss the practical value of HBV DNA polymerase (DNAp) determination. DNAp activity is a good marker of HBV high replication in patients with chronic hepatitis B (HBeAg+), very useful during monitoring of immunostimulation and/or antiviral treatment.
