Figure 4 Methods used for genotyping. The 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) and Core regions targeted by INNO-LiPA (the 5’-UTR only for INNO-LiPA I or both the 5’-UTR and core regions for INNO-LiPA II), sequencing of NS5B are used the standard methods for classifying hepatitis C virus genotype and subtype[5,78].
