Abstract
: One of the main methods for B 19 Parvovirus transmission is by blood and its products. Screening test for this virus is not yet applicable; in spite of its association with some sever complication. So that the aim of this study was to estimate the level of HPVB19 IgM antibodies among blood donor in centre of Basra. A total of 189 blood samples were drawn from healthy blood donor attending the blood bank in Basrah governorate from the Detection of May 2016. parvovirus B19 IgM antibodies was done using linked immunosorbent - a solid phase enzyme this that highest seropositivity were among age group 30-39 years and the lowest level among those above 40 years (0%), with overall prevalence of IgM 51.1% this high percentage may related to the time of sampling which coincide with the maximum period of infectivity which was more common in late winter, spring, and early summer. Regarding the association between ABO blood groups and susceptibility to infection: the rate of infection more among those with blood respectively this is depend on the availability of blood antigen P which act as receptors for this virus, and highest level of HPV IgM was found among the taxi drivers in conclusion:
