conclusions a significant direct correlation was observed between the viral dna copies present in patients’ cerumen and serum. however, the correlation between saliva viral load with serum and cerumen viral load was very low and inverse. these findings suggest that the presence of the hepatitis b virus (hbv) in non-invasive specimens (such as cerumen and saliva) should also be evaluated when mo...
