A seroprevalence study was performed to determine the percentage of people exposed to Seoul virus among biologists and police officers (n = 226), whose work might put them into contact with viral reservoirs. Detection of specific IgG antibodies was performed by indirect immunofluorescence and western-blot. There was one positive result among the biologists (4.54%). This study confirms Seoul virus exposure in one of the employment groups studied.
