Abstract:
:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of a herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1-specific anti-glycoprotein C-1 monoclonal antibody (MAb) and a type 2-specific anti-glycoprotein G-2 MAb for typing of 2,400 clinical HSV-1 isolates and 2,400 clinical HSV-2 isolates, respectively, using an enzyme immunoassay. The anti-HSV-1 MAb showed sensitivity and specificity of 100%, and the anti-HSV-2 MAb showed a sensitivity of 99.46% and 100% specificity, indicating that these MAbs are suitable for typing of clinical HSV isolates.
