[Assessment by immunoenzyme analysis of the immune status of donors with reference to the viruses of rubella, measles and herpes simplex].

The results of testing the blood sera obtained from donors at a blood transfusion center in Moscow for the presence of antibodies to rubella, measles and herpes simplex viruses, carried out by means of the enzyme immunoassay with the use of the corresponding test systems, are presented. Antibodies to rubella, measles and herpes simplex viruses have been detected, respectively, in 81.5, 96.7 and 100% of blood sera. The proportion of sera with low, medium and high antibody titers has proved to be virtually the same with respect to antibodies to rubella and herpes simplex viruses, the sera with medium antibody titers constituting 59%. At the same time tests for measles antibodies have shown the prevalence of sera with low titers (49.2%) with the highest percentage of seronegative donors (18.5%, as compared with 3.3% in rubella and the absence of negative sera in herpes simplex).
