Hepatitis B surface antibodies can help a doctor identify different phases of hepatitis B infection and determine whether a person is immune to the virus or susceptible to infection.

Test results for hepatitis B can seem confusing, but they don't have to be. Let's review what the presence or absence or these antibodies means for you: ...

The researchers identified these antibodies within samples donated by COVID-19 survivors. Collectively, the pair are called CoV2-biRNs, and they deliver a one-two punch that disables the virus ...

A hepatitis B nonreactive test result can mean a person is not immune to the virus. Learn how the test works, how to interpret the results, and the next steps.

The effectiveness of the engineered investigational human monoclonal antibody VIR-3434 in treating chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis D has been showcased. The research was carried by a team around ...

The antibodies attach to a part of the virus that doesn't appear to mutate, potentially allowing them to work on multiple COVID-19 variants.
