Abstract
This study detects the serological test and the prevalence of Cytomegalovirus infection in women (from 14-45 years) in AL-Najaf city, 300 samples were collected from AL-Zahraa Hospital, AL-Hakeem Hospital and central public health laborotary from the September 2019 to December 2019 ,5ml of blood samples have been withdrawn from each women, centrifuged at 3000 r.p.m for 15 minutes, the serum has been aspirated to another test tube for storage in deep freeze (-20˚ C) until the time of analysis, the following laboratory testing, ELISA (CMV IgG, CMV IgM ), The percentage of cases of total CMV that showed positive results for ELISA CMV IgG test were /289) 96.3 %( from total sample, and for ELISA CMV IgM tests, were) /6 2%( from total samples
