Abstract
This preliminary survey was intended to collect transversal data to ensure a better understanding of the hepatitis B and C epidemiology in Mauritania. The authors have studied the seroprevalence rate of HBs antigen and HCV antibodies among 349 blood donors. Data of this study showed that anti-HCV antibody was detected in 1.1% and HBs antigen in 20.3% blood donors.
