I would like to know how to calculate my viral load based on my test results. The results i got from the clinic were given to me below Test: Hepatitis B DNA Viral Load Detected 6.27E+1 IU/mL HBV Viral Load conversion factor 1 IU/mL = 5.82 copies per mL. Values are expressed in Scientific E Notation (i.e E+X= 10 to the power of X) So i would like to know the copies or my viral load. As the place i am living in its difficult to get a specialist in time. My last doctor told me the following • An undetectable viral load (which means fewer HBV DNA than a lab’s equipment can identify) generally is lower than about 300 copies/mL. • Moderate levels of HBV DNA begin at about 10,000 to copies/mL. • High levels of HBV DNA can exceed 100,000 copies/mL. It is not unusual for someone with the hepatitis B “e” antigen (HBeAg) to have millions of HBV DNA. So please tell me how to calculate the copies of viral load from the result i have specified above. So in this case I can do my calculation and push to meet a doctor sooner rather than later. As it takes even a year to get access to a specialist where i live. If my load is low i can wait to meet a specialist and give others a chance who need it more. If you can also explain how you got to the reading it would be great. THanks for your help.
