We compared a novel real-time genotyping and quantitative PCR (GQ-PCR) assay, direct sequence analysis, reverse hybridization, and multiplex PCR for genotyping hepatitis B virus (HBV) in 127 HBV-infected patients. We found that GQ-PCR had the highest concordance with sequence analysis and the highest detection rate for mixed genotype detecting. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is highly prevalent world-wide, affecting more than 2 billion people. Approximately 400 million people are chronic carriers (7). Chronic HBV infection is associated with 1 million deaths annually and is a major risk factor of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (10). The high HBV infection rate represents a considerable public health issue. HBV has been clas...
