  1. aHCV genetic subtypes were determined by phylogenetic analyses of the C-E1 nucleotide sequences. The following HCV C-E1 sequences were used as subtype reference pools: 1A: (USCHI0, USCHI152, USCHI168, and USCHI174); 1B: (ITCHI1, ITCHI2, ITCHI24, and ITCHI132); 2A: (USCHI140, USCHI155, and USCHI173); 2B: (USCHI160 and USCHI162); 2C: (ITCHI23 and IT-CHI33); 3A: (ITCHI20, ITCHI22, ITCHI26, ITCHI35, USCHI145, and USCHI164).
