pubmed:abstractText
Two hepatitis C antibody assays were used to test diluted positive sera. Dilutions of 1 in 5, 1 in 10, and 1 in 20 all resulted in loss of reactivity, with the greatest losses occurring in samples with low and moderate reactivities. These results disqualify pooling as a strategy for seroprevalence studies and screening programs.
