Abstract
The Difco Laboratories Cellmatics kit, an immune staining method for the detection of herpes simplex virus after amplification in culture, was found to be 94.6% (138 of 146) sensitive and 100% (302 of 302) specific. However, conventional culturing detected 10 (6.4%) additional viruses that were not herpes simplex. For a full-service diagnostic laboratory, viral isolation is important.Entities:
