CURRENT   Relative information

1mL plasma-EDTA frozen Analytical range:        6 - 110.000.000 UI/mL Limit of quantification:           6     UI/mL                                        35 copias/mL                                      0.78 log UI/mL

1.5 mL plasma-EDTA frozen Analytical range:        20 - 170.000.000 UI/mL Limit of quantification:           20     UI/mL                                        117 copias/mL                                        1.30 log UI/mL NOTE: Reported about the version change in the test for quantifying HBV viral load. The incorporation of this improvement, the new version 2.0 Roche Cobas tests, also implies a change in the volume of plasma required.  The change is an improvement in the extension of quantification interval.
