متن کاملDetection of immunoglobulin M antibody to Epstein-Barr virus by use of an enzyme-labeled antigen.
Immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies to Epstein-Barr virus were detected by using microtiter plates coated with anti-mu-chain antiserum and enzyme-labeled Epstein-Barr virus antigen. Optimum conditions for labeling were determined. The addition of unlabeled control antigen to the enzyme-labeled antigen was effective in reducing background reactions. Rheumatoid factor no longer interfered. Blocking...

متن کاملImproved immunofluorescence antigens for detection of immunoglobulin M antibodies to Epstein-Barr viral capsid antigen and antibodies to Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen.
Epstein-Barr viral capsid antigen and nuclear antigen produced by modified procedures were evaluated for use in measuring viral capsid antigen immunoglobulin M and Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen antibody responses in sera from patients with suspected Epstein-Barr virus infections. Viral capsid antigen production was stimulated with a phorbol ester, and the Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen...
متن کاملFalse Positive Immunoglobulin M Antibody to Cytomegalovirus in Child with Infectious Mononucleosis Caused by Epstein-Barr Virus Infection
A 16-month-old boy was admitted because of cough that had lasted for 10 days. The patient showed severe hepatomegaly incidentally, and dual positivity of Immunoglobulin (Ig) M to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viral capsid antigen (VCA) and cytomegalovirus (CMV). On the basis of seroconversion to Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen (EBNA) Ig G positivity and reduced CMV Ig M titer with persistently negative...
