Özet

Objective: As healthcare professionals are exposed to infected blood samples, they are at increased risks of exposure to many infectious agents. The aim of the study was to investigate the seroprevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections among healthcare professionals and hospital staff at a dental hospital.
