摘要
Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) dengue (DENV), chikungunya (CHIK), and Zika (ZIKV) have been responsible for a high number of outbreaks worldwide. However, their screening in blood donors is not mandatory, and asymptomatic cases might act as an important cause of virus transmission via transfusion. A study was conducted to assess the presence of DENV (serotypes 1-4), ZIKV, and CHIKV in pooled samples (pool size: six) from asymptomatic blood donors. A total of 9463 plasma pools, corresponding to 56,778 blood donations from asymptomatic blood donors who attended donor sessions at HEMORIO and other blood centers in Rio de Janeiro and Esp & iacute;rito Santo, was submitted to automated nucleic-acid extraction and PCR amplification using ZC D-Tipagem molecular assay (Bio-Manguinhos). In general, a pool prevalence of 1% (95/9463) and a donor prevalence of 0.17% (95/56,778) were observed. January and February 2024 had a total of 62 positive pools out of 95 (65.3%). Targets DENV-1 and -2 had a higher prevalence in the studied months-early summer-with 24 and 28 positive pools, respectively. ZC D-Tipagem molecular assay was able to detect the best-known arboviruses circulating in asymptomatic blood donors; this study suggested that ZIKV, CHIK, and DENV are circulating in asymptomatic blood donors before blood donations and can be transmitted to blood transfusion recipients.
