The Herpes Simplex Virus Culture with Reflex Typing test contains 1 test with 4 biomarkers .

Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is responsible for several clinically significant human genital tract infections, neonatal herpes, meningoencephalitis, keratoconjunctivitis and gingivostomatitis. There are two HSV serotypes that are closely related antigenically. HSV type 2 is more commonly associated with genital tract and neonatal infections, while HSV type 1 is more commonly associated with infections of non-genital sites. Typing of genital HSV isolates may assist in the prognosis for lesion recurrence and may be of interest in epidemiological studies.
