The Herpes Simplex Virus II Antibody IgG/IgM Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of antibody (IgG and IgM) to herpes simplex virus type II in whole blood/serum/plasma to aid in the diagnosis of HSV-II infection.
Summary
About 491 million people aged 15–49 (13%) worldwide have herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection, which is the main cause of genital herpes.
The Herpes Simplex Virus II Antibody IgG/IgM Test utilizes recombinant antigen derived from its structural protein, which detects antibodies (IgG and IgM) to HSV-II in patient whole blood/serum/plasma within 15 minutes. The test can be performed by untrained or minimally skilled personnel without cumbersome laboratory equipment.
