Which two of the following are TYPE SPECIFIC FOR TESTING HERPES

[romanticscorpion83]

Name: CSF - HSV 1 IgG ABS TO HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS 1
Code: 9451CI
Methodology: EIA REMARK : In order to achieve comparable relationship between CSF & Serum - 1. Pathogen Specific IgG in serum (dilution 1:404) & CSF (dilution 1:2) are run on CSF IgG HSV 1 kit separately (for which there are no established reference ranges) & CSF/serum IgG HSV 1 quotient calculated. 2. Total IgG in serum & CSF are run separately & CSF/serum Total IgG quotient calculated. 3. As per recommended guideline (Reiber & Lange 1991) - Ratio between CSF/serum IgG HSV 1 quotient and CSF/serum total IgG quotient is used for interpretation. 4. The CSF/serum quotient reference more than 1.5 is considered to be indicative of pathogen-specific antibody production in CNS.

Name: CSF - HSV 2 IGG ABS TO HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS 2
Code: 9461CI
Methodology: EIA REMARK : In order to achieve comparable relationship between CSF & Serum - 1. Pathogen Specific IgG in serum (dilution 1:404) & CSF (dilution 1:2) are run on CSF IgG HSV 2 kit separately(for which there are no established reference ranges) & CSF/serum IgG HSV 2 quotient calculated. 2. Total IgG in serum & CSF are run separately & CSF/serum Total IgG quotient calculated. 3. As per recommended guideline (Reiber & Lange 1991) - Ratio between CSF/serum IgG HSV 2 quotient and CSF/serum total IgG quotient is used for interpretation. 4. The CSF/serum quotient reference more than 1.5 is considered to be indicative of pathogen-specific antibody production in CNS.

Name: HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS 1 AND 2 DNA PCR
Code: 7581D
Methodology:

Name: HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS 1&2 IGG & IGM, SERUM
Code: 8051
Methodology: Enzyme Immuno-Assay
Name: HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS 1&2 IgG, ABS
Code: 9454D
Methodology:

you want hsv1 igg  blood testing and hsv2 igg blood testing. discuss with your provider ordering the right tests I'm not about to continue answering numerous questions like this when I don't know anything about the lab or anything to know what testing they are offering specifically.

What about these Grace
D1901 HSV 1 IgG antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 1, CSF CSF Enzyme Immuno assay
  
B1902 HSV 1 IgG antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 1, serum serum Enzyme Immuno assay
  
B1903 HSV 1 IgM antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 1, Serum serum Enzyme Immuno assay

D1904 HSV 1&2 IgG antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 1 & 2, CSF CSF CLIA
  
B1905 HSV 1&2 IgG antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 1 & 2, Serum serum CLIA

B1906 HSV 1&2 IgM antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 1 &2, Serum serum CLIA
  
D1907 HSV 2 IgG antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 2, CSF CSF Enzyme Immuno assay
  
B1908 HSV 2 IgG antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 2, Serum serum Enzyme Immuno assay
  
B1909 HSV 2 IgM antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus 2, Serum serum Enzyme Immuno assay

csf means cerebral spinal fluid. you do not want to have that ordered.

herpes pcr is for lesion cultures. since herpes isn't a blood borne virus, routine screening for herpes infections can't be done via pcr.

honestly I can't even tell you if the herpes simplex virus 1&2 igg is type specific or not, you'll need to call and ask specifically. I doubt the other test is type specific either.
