Abstract
In western India, TT virus (TTV) DNA positivity varied from 6.7% (5 of 75) in chronic hepatitis patients to 24.4% (10 of 41) in hemophiliacs; 7.4% (4 of 54) of voluntary blood donors had circulating TTV DNA. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a predominance of genotype 1a. In India, TTV is transmitted mainly by nonparenteral routes and is not an important cause of chronic liver diseases.
