dc.description.abstractIn this study, seroprevalence of HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HIV and VDRL were screened in the blood donors by donor screening tests in blood centers of Antakya State Hospital, Antakya Maternity Hospital and Iskenderun Kizilay Blood Bank between 2003 and 2004 retrospectively. A total of 12.026 (97.6%) male and 287 (2.3%) female donors were screened for HBV, HCV, and HIV using commercially available ELISA kits, VDRL test for syphilis. A total of 12.313 donors were screened. The seropositivity rates of HBsAg and anti-HCV were found as 249 (2.02%) and 65 (0.52%) respectively. Only 3 (0.02%) donors for HIV and 4 (0.03%) donors for VDRL were positive. Three patients with HIV seropositivity by ELISA technique were found negative by Western blot and accepted as false seropositivity. In conclusion, in our region, while the seroprevalence of HBsAg and VDRL were less than that reported in previous some studies carried out in Turkey, anti-HCV seropositivity was similar to among as compared to the other sides of Turkey.en_US
