Abstract
Plaque forming assay was used in enumerate the number of plaque forming cells of anti-HBc (PFC anti-HBc) in eight patients with Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) and eight health humans as a control group. We found statistical increase in number of PFC anti-HBc in patients with CHB when compared their results with control group. The percentage of patients that have IgG anti-HBc was 100 % and this percentage was 87.5%. From this study we can suggest there is a spontaneous ability in these patients to production of anti-HBc.
