About Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test | Oral Herpes Testing in Eureka
Understanding what this test measures helps put the result in context.
HSV-1 is a common virus that typically causes oral herpes, often appearing as cold sores around the mouth. It can also be transmitted to other areas of the body through direct contact.
This test uses the HerpeSelect method to look for specific IgG antibodies that fight HSV-1. The presence of these antibodies suggests the immune system has encountered the virus at some point.
Antibody testing differs from direct viral testing, which looks for the virus itself during an active outbreak. A blood antibody test can be useful when someone wants to know whether they have been exposed to HSV-1, regardless of whether sores are present.
