Total?ly 6 718 stool samples and 2 359 serum samples were tested by Kato?Katz technique and the enzyme linked immune method re?spectively. Meanwhile,the information of the patients was collected by questionnaires. Results Totally 513 suspected patients were infected with Clonorchis sinensis. The infection rate of the suspected patients was higher in the ≥29 group(P<0.05), and the infection rate and positive rate of blood tests of the rural suspected patients were both higher than those of the urban sus?pected patients(both P<0.05). The habit of eating raw fish and shrimp was the risk factor of clonorchiasis. Conclusion Clo?norchiasis is one of the main food?borne parasitic diseases in Heilongjiang Province.
