  • Title: Evaluation of Epstein-Barr virus antibodies, anti-VCA avidity by immunofluorescence and immunoblot assays for assessment of Epstein-Barr virus immunologic state.
    Author: Sener AG, Afsar I, Pinar E.
    Journal: J Virol Methods; 2009 Aug; 159(2):300-2. PubMed ID: 19406156.
    Abstract:
    Three hundred twenty two serum samples were evaluated by indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and immunoblotting for the assessment of the immunologic status of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Serological profiles of 322 serum samples were classified by the IgM and IgG antibodies by the immunofluorescence assay as seronegative, acute infection, reactivation and past infection. Higher rates of seropositivity were determined in serum samples belonging to old age groups. Routine tests used for EBV diagnosis were efficient.
