Greater amount of HCV-RNA in tears compared to blood.

Abstract

Plasma, tear fluid and swabs from eye, nose and pharynx of 33 patients were examined for presence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). All samples from plasma, tear fluid and eyeswabs were found to show a positive reaction in HCV-RNA PCR. Remarkably, we regularly found greater amounts of amplification products in tear fluid and eyeswabs compared to plasma using the same conditions for sample preparation.
