A sensitive and specific assay system for anti-HBc, the passive hemagglutination (PHA) method, has been established. The reactivity of PHA cells prepared by conjugating purified recombinant HBcAg-particles with fixed sheep blood cells (SRBC) was highly specific to monoclonal- and polyclonal anti-HBc IgGs. The sensitivity of PHA method was higher than that of radioimmunoassay (RIA). However, uncertainty for the positivity of anti-HBc still remained in plasma with the PHA titers lower than 2(5). A relatively high ratio (19%, 37 of 196) of anti-HBc-positive plasma, which had been confirmed to be HBsAg negative, was demonstrated in blood donors whose bloods have been considered suitable for transfusion. The hazards of anti-HBc-positive bloods and the importance of anti-HBc detection in plasma are discussed in this paper.
