    Author: Mistik R, Baran B.
    Journal: Mikrobiyol Bul; 1993 Apr; 27(2):143-6. PubMed ID: 8502186.
    Abstract:
    In this study, Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was detected in 3.1% (19/602) of mothers just after delivery. HBsAg positivity was detected in 31% (6/19) in cord blood of newborn infants born from HBsAg positive mothers. Six months later, 15 of the HBsAg positive mothers and their children were screened serologically. HBsAg positivity persisted in only one child (1/15, 6.6%).
