Material and Methods: The laboratory records of clinically suspected Japanese B encephalitis patients from January 2009 to December 2011were analyzed retrospectively and results of Ig M anti-Japanese B encephalitis antibodies tested by Ig M capture enzyme linked immunosorbant assay (Mac ELISA. A total of 706 Japanese B encephalitis suspected cerebrospinal fluid samples and 491 serum samples were analyzed, out of which 31(4.39%) in cerebrospinal fluid samples and 20 (4.05%) in serum samples were found positive for Japanese B encephalitis virus infection.
