title: Control of BK virus antibodies in contacts of patients under chronic hemodialysis or after renal transplantation (by an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay).
abstract: Elisa technique for IgG humoral BK virus antibodies titration is not time consuming, not expensive and brings results in accordance with those obtained by HI. It was observed among adults attending patients in chronic hemodialysis and renal transplantation centers an antibody level similar to observed titers in control subjects.
