Hepatitis A seroprevalence in Slovene travellers
European Journal of Epidemiology, 2001Hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection rates used to be very high in the past [1]. In the economically developed countries, HAV infection rates and the proportion of people with immunity to HAV decreased as a result of improved sanitation [2, 3]. There is a scarcity of information on the prevalence rates of anti-HAV in the Central European countries [4, 5].

The seroprevalence of cystic hydatidosis in Oman
Annals of Tropical Medicine And Parasitology, 1999The presence of antibodies against Echinococcus granulosus in sera from 306 humans and 390 camels in Oman was investigated by indirect haemagglutination assays. Only one of the human and five of the camel sera gave positive reactions. The reactivities of the human sera were confirmed by ELISA.
