Abstract		To investigate the prevalence of HIV-1 subtypes A-E in Slovenia, 82 HIV-1 infected individuals were tested for the presence of HIV-1 subtype specific antibodies using a research competitive peptide enzyme immuno assay supplied by Boehringer Mannheim. In 74 individuals unambiguous results were obtained. As in other European countries, the majority of Slovenian HIV-1 infected individuals (86.5%) were infected with subtype B. Infections with subtypes C, A, D and E were detected in 8.1%, 2.7%, 1.3% and 1.3% individuals, respectively.
