NAT testing for Erythroviruses genotype 2 and 3 sequences in plasma pools • Plasma pools ~ 100.000 Danish blood donations, no genotype 3 sequences1 • Plasma pools ~ 140.160 Finnish blood donations, no genotype 2 (and genotype 3) sequences2 • 52 plasma pools from 9 different manufacturers, no genotype 2 and 3 sequences detected3 • Plasma pools ~950.000 Dutch blood donations, no genotype 2 and 3 sequences4 • 1Heegaard et al.

Erythrovirus genotype 2 and 3 in coagulation factor concentrate1. • Haemophilia Centre Bonn Germany1. • 13 commercially available plasma-derived coagulation factor concentrates (181 lots). Period collected 2000-2003. • Analyzed with specific NAT tests for genotype 1 and 2 in final products. • Genotype 1 DNA 77/181 (42.5 %) and genotype 2 DNA 2/181 (1.1 %). • Genotype 2 always co-contaminated with genotype 1. • 1Schneider et al. 2004 Thromb Haemost 92 838-845 SOGAT 25-05-2005
Conclusions (1) • Data on testing of plasma pools for Erythrovirus genotype 2 and 3 sequences do not indicate that the specificity of applied Parvo B19 tests should be extended to these new molecular variants. • Additional data on the prevalence and load of Erythroviruses genotype 2 and 3 in plasma pools and individual donations should be collected in a research setting. • Additional studies are dependent on publicly available reference materials for these molecular variants (WHO, EDQM, and commercial suppliers). SOGAT 25-05-2005
Conclusions (2) • The new variant viruses are not classified by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses. Terminology in literature is confusing: Family Parvoviridae, genus Erythrovirus, genotype 1 (Parvo B19), genotype 2 (A6 like), genotype 3 (V9 like)or Parvovirus B19 gt 1, gt 2, and gt 3.
