Purified native HSV2 protein Background: Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is a ubiquitous infectious agent of man. Although asymptomatic infections are probably common, HSV infections may be accompanied by vesicular eruptions of the skin or mucous membranes. Both HSV Types 1 and 2 can cause severe clinical diseases including keratoconjunctivitis
, meningitis, encephalitis, eczema herpeticum and generalized infection. Serologic tests for the detection of antibodies are useful in determining the immune status.
