Abstract We use a sample of 45 low-metallicity H II regions to determine the primordial helium abundance Yp. We have carefully investigated the physical effects which may make the He I line intensities deviate from their recombination values such as collisional and fluorescent enhancements, underlying He I stellar absorption and absorption by Galactic interstellar Na, I. By extrapolating the Y vs. O/H linear regression to O/H = 0, we obtain Yp = 0.245±0.002. Our Yp gives 0.06±0.01.
