Epstein Barr virus nuclear 1 IgG and IgM [Color Ratio] in Serum or Plasma by Rapid immunoassay

EBV NA 1 IgG+IgM SerPl IA.rapid-ColRto

Definition

  • The presence of anti-Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen-1 (anti-EBNA-1) IgM and anti-EBNA-1 IgG antibodies in human serum/plasma can be simultaneously detected by rapid ELISA. Results are used to aid in the diagnosis of acute Infectious Mononucleosis (IM). The relative strength of IgG and IgM reactions is visually compared. When IgM is greater than or equal to IgG, it is indicative of acute/current mononucleosis infection and the test is reported as "positive." When IgG response is greater than IgM, it is indicative of previous exposure and the test is reported as "negative." Absence of both IgG and IgM is also "negative" and indicates no previous exposure to EBV. This code is based on, but not limited to, Merdian BioScience's MONOLERT Rapid ELISA Test for infectious Mononucleosis.
