To evaluate the presence and extension of West Nile virus where French soldiers are stationed in Africa, specific antibody prevalence was determined by using ELISA and Western blot. Among 245 horses living in close proximity to the soldiers, seroprevalence was particularly high in Chad (97%) and Senegal (92%).
为评估西尼罗河病毒在法国士兵驻扎的非洲地区的存在情况和传播范围,采用酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)和蛋白质印迹法测定了特异性抗体的流行率。在与士兵驻地邻近生活的245匹马中,乍得(97%)和塞内加尔(92%)的血清阳性率特别高。
