Hepatitis C virus is reported to have a low buoyant density in sucrose. To determine the
density of hepatitis C virus in the circulation of infected hosts and its association with the
degree of liver inflammation, we examined serum samples from 10 patients who were
positive for both hepatitis C virus antibody (C100 antigen) antibody and serum hepatitis C
virus RNA. After the serum was ultracentrifuged in sucrose density gradient (10 to 60), the
hepatitis C virus RNA titer in each collected fraction was quantified by means of competitive …
