Abstract
Introduction: Hepatitis E virus (HEV) has been identified as an emerging cause of infectious hepatitis over the last years in developed countries. In contrast to travel associated hepatitis E, zoonotic sources of infection are suspected for autochthonous cases in Europe. Since pigs are known reservoirs of HEV, we tested pig livers sold in local butcher shops in Southeastern Germany for the presence of Hepatitis E virus.
