Frequently Asked Questions

Is fasting required for HBV genotyping and drug resistance test?

No, fasting is not required. The test is performed on EDTA blood or plasma.

What sample is needed?

Whole blood in EDTA tube (3 mL) or EDTA plasma.

How long does it take to get results?

Typically 3-5 working days due to PCR and sequencing requirements.

What do the results mean?

Genotype identifies the HBV strain (A-J), guiding treatment selection. Drug resistance mutations indicate reduced efficacy of certain antivirals, prompting therapy adjustment.

Can medications affect results?

Antiviral drugs may suppress viral load but do not alter genotype or resistance mutation detection. Inform your doctor about current medications.

Does stress or diet affect this test?

No, HBV genotyping and resistance are not influenced by stress or diet.
