To investigate the status of HBV-M and HBV DNA in blood donors, 583 serum samples were detected by ELISA technique and polymerase chain reaction. The results were that hepatitis B virus marker(HBV-M) positive rate was 55.9%(326/583), HBV DNA 9.78%(57/583). The data indicate that there is high incidence of HBV infection in blood donors. The donors should be strictly tested for HBV in the future.
