HSV1 Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2), also known as Human herpes virus 1 and 2 (HHV-1 and -2), are two members of the herpes virus family, Herpesviridae, that infect humans. Both HSV-1 (which produces cold sores) and HSV-2 (which produces genital herpes) are ubiquitous and contagious. They can be spread when an infected person is producing and shedding the virus.

Small volumes of anti-HSV1 + HSV2 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

Herpes simplex HSV represents a family of closely related virus subtypes. HSV 1 is associated with oral cold sores and HSV 2 genital herpes. Easily passed between positive to negative people, an infection testing requires doctor visits for blood test results. Dorms, nurseries and schools are outbreak epicenters. Symptoms can linger for months or years, so development of tests based on IgG or IgM antibodies is needed. By using MyBiosource HSV 1 2 polyclonal antibody as a test positive control, other IgG test herpes simplex virus antibodies can be compared for enhanced reactivity to either HSV types 1 2. Dr Jen Gunter has a comment posted to this effect. Generating positive HSV 2 IgG or specific HSV 1 HSV GMP grade antibodies would accelerate blood tests and limit the spread of new forms of genital HSV 1 or genital HSV 2.
