Abstract The performance of currently available hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) commercial kits was analyzed by using a panel of 212 well-characterized plasma donors all over the country and a panel of nine recombinant HBsAg mutants containing single point or combinations of mutations between amino acid residues 124 and 147 of the ""a"" determinant. HBsAg commercial kits in this study were machine-based immunoassays with a one-step sandwich ELISA method using either an automatic closed system or manual system. The sensitivity of all machine-based assays evaluated with 105 HBsAg plasma panels was 100% (95% CL = 95.6-99.9%), whereas the specificity with 107 HBsAg negative plasma ranged from 99.07% to 100% (95% CL = 94.2-99.9%). The relative performance of these kits to detect the hepatitis B virus (HBV) mutant panel members of the ""a"" determinant was found to differ. Interestingly, any commercial kits with monoclonal antibody capture and polyclonal antibody detection (mono/poly), but not mono/mono Ab capture and detection, could pick up the common HBsAg Gly145Arg mutant either solely or in combination with other mutations within the ""a"" determinant. New versions of HBsAg test kits should recognize multiple HBsAg epitopes in order to detect mutant HBsAg, together with providing good analytical sensitivity and specificity, because of the importance of these assays in HBV diagnosis and in protecting the safety of the blood supply.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
  • Clinical Information: The study is a clinical or epidemiological study and provides basic information about the population.
  • Treatment: The study mentioned a certain treatment method, such as drug resistance caused by mutations. If the study does not specifically indicate the relationship between mutations and their correspondence treatment, the main treatment studied in the article is marked.
