Description | Strip-Immunoassay with antigens produced by recombinant techniques for the detection of IgG, IgA and IgM antibodies against the Epstein-Barr virus (Epstein-Barr Virus) Product is intended for research use. The Epstein-Barr virus, an ubiquitously occurring herpes virus, can cause the symptoms of infectious mononucleosis (Pfeiffer's disease) on primary infection. Moreover, as a result of the lifelong persistence of this pathogen, reactivations can occur, especially in immuno-incompetent persons.Due to the diversity of symptoms caused by primary infection or reactivation and their correspondence with the symptoms of other diseases, one of the main tasks in routine diagnosis is the serological detection of a primary infection, past infection or possible reactivation. For this purpose, a series of individual determinations (EIA and IFT) are generally carried out for the particular class of antigen and type of antibody.The recomLine Epstein-Barr Virus, with the antigens sprayed onto the nitrocellulose, is designed as screening immunoassay. The line-assay technique allows the detection and identification of IgG and IgM antibodies directed against the different Epstein-Barr Virus antigen classes in a single approach. The application of highly specific and characteristic Epstein-Barr Virus proteins is made possible by the use of antigens produced by genetic engineering."The combination of p18 and EBNA-1 (in IgG detection) represents a so far unrivalled degree of certainty in the exclusion of primary infections."Prof. Dr. G. Bauer, Freiburg '99 |
