Hepatitis B infection (HBV) disease is one of the significant general wellbeing concerns. Around 2 billion contaminated people universally, 350 million incessant hepatitis and up to 1.2 million demise every year due to HBV disease have been made the crisis of this disease inescapable. Roughly 75% of patients with constant hepatitis live in Asia and Africa and up to 15-45% of HBV contaminated patients develops to cirrhosis, liver disappointment and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Over 35% of Iranian populaces have been presented to HBV and over 3% of the network evaluated to be infection bearers. Since 1992, national inoculation program has been applied for neonates and ongoing examinations inferred a considerable decrease in the predominance of HBV disease from 2.5-7.2% in 1997 to 0.45% in 2003. Two enormous scaled investigation when national immunization program demonstrated a huge decrease in seropositivity rate in the age bunch 2-14 years (1.3% Vs. 0.8%, P<0.05). Besides the level of secured populace under inoculation has been improved from 62% in 1993 to 94% in 2005. Notwithstanding worthy reports of counteraction administrations, there is no effective treatment for the high level of solid bearers in the general public who have an impressive extent of included patients. These patients are in danger for ensuing cirrhosis and HCC and go about as a considerable hotspot for spreading the disease.
