DETECTION OF RUBELLA VIRUS INFECTION IN ABORATIVE PREGNANT WOMEN IN AL-NAJAF GOVERNORATE
Abstract
The present study aimed to determine the immune states against rubella in women underwent abortion by detecting the levels of IgM and IgG immunoglobulins in their sera. The study included a collection of venous blood samples from three hundred women underwent abortion whose ages ranged from (15-35) years were Al-Najaf governorate.Enzyme- linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA were used to determine the immunological response against rubella virus in our samples. ELISA test reflected a new infections which was (4.6 %) positive results. Anti-rubella IgG antibodies ELISA test revealed (77%) positive result .References
