The prevalence of antibodies to Plasmodium falciparum was studied in 890 blood donors from different geographical areas of Venezuela. The overall prevalence, as established by ELISA, was (1.7%). Seropositivity was higher in those samples obtained in Sucre (2.5%) and Apure (1.7%) states both with foci of malaria transmission. It is proposed that medical history should be reinforced by screening antimalarial antibodies in donors at risk.
对来自委内瑞拉不同地理区域的890名献血者进行了恶性疟原虫抗体流行率研究。通过酶联免疫吸附测定法确定的总体流行率为(1.7%)。在疟疾传播疫源地的苏克雷州(2.5%)和阿普雷州(1.7%)采集的样本中,血清阳性率更高。建议通过筛查有风险的献血者的抗疟抗体来加强病史调查。
