Intended Use
The Herpes Simplex Virus I Antibody IgG/IgM Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of antibody (IgG and IgM) to herpes simplex virus type I in whole blood/serum/plasma to aid in the diagnosis of HSV-I infection.
Summary
About 67% of the global population is infected with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). HSV-1 is generally transmitted from person to person through infectious oral secretions during close contact.
The Herpes Simplex Virus I Antibody IgG/IgM Test utilizes recombinant antigen derived from its structural protein, which detects antibodies (IgG and IgM) to HSV-I in patient whole blood/serum/plasma within 15 minutes. The test can be performed by untrained or minimally skilled personnel without cumbersome laboratory equipment.
