Hepatitis C virus immunoassay

Roche Diagnostics has announced that the Elecsys anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) assay has received regulatory approval in Europe for the E170 analyser for modular analytics and the e601 module for the Cobas 6000 platform. The Elecsys anti-HCV assay is already available on the Elecsys 2010 and the Cobas e411 instruments.

Hepatitis C virus infection represents a major cause of death through the development of severe fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. The principal mode of transmission is parenteral exposure to infected blood or blood products (ie insufficient blood screening procedures, mainly in developing countries) and contaminated needles or other invasive medical tools.
