Tampon culture for quantitation of cervicovaginal herpes simplex virus.

Abstract:

:From 10(1) to 10(6) TCID50 (mean tissue culture infective doses) per ml HSV I and II can be quantitatively recorded from vaginal tampons. Tampons and sterile cotton swabs are equally sensitive in recovering HSV I and II. Direct cotton swab cultures of the cervix and cervicovaginal tampon cultures from the same patients recovered similar quantities of HSV, ranging from 1.5 to 6.5 log10 TCID50/ml in 5 patients.

  • Evidence of shared Epstein-Barr viral isolates between sexual partners, and low level EBV in genital secretions.

    abstract::Epstein-Barr virus is present in the saliva of most persistently infected individuals and is generally thought to be spread by close oral contact. However, there are now several reports of EBV in genital secretions, suggesting the possibility of sexual transmission between adults. The present study was undertaken to i...
