The Lymphogranuloma Venereum (LGV) Differentiation Antibody Panel uses micro-immunofluorescence (MIF) to measure IgG, IgA, and IgM antibodies to Chlamydia trachomatis (LGV L1 and non-LGV D–K) and related Chlamydiaspecies (C. pneumoniae and C. psittaci). It helps differentiate antibody patterns consistent with LGV versus other chlamydial exposures when cross-reactivity may complicate interpretation.
The Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (HSV-2) IgG HerpeSelect® Test with Reflex to HSV-2 Inhibition detects IgG antibodies specific to HSV-2, the virus causing genital herpes. The reflex inhibition assay confirms positive results, improving accuracy and reducing false positives. Doctors order this test to diagnose genital herpes, even in asymptomatic patients. Results help confirm infection status, guide counseling, and support treatment or management of HSV-2 and related complications.
