Correlation between hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) in maternal blood and cord blood in newborn: a study on transplacental acquired maternal antibody
Anti-HB antibodies measured in mother and infant cord blood were strongly correlated, demonstrating efficient transplacental antibody transfer to protect infants against Hepatitis B infection. Hepatitis B vaccination is required for mothers to obtain immunogenicity and babies to receive hepatitis B vaccination on time.
