descriptionThis is a bioassay to measure herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2). HSV-1 causes infections of the lips and mouth, such as cold sores and fever blisters. It is transmitted through saliva. Both HSV-1 and HSV-2 can cause genital herpes, a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Most genital herpes is caused by HSV-2. The bioassay determines whether a participant is infected with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and/or type 2 (HSV-2), a common infection in the United States. A total of 16.2%, or about one out of six people aged 14-49 years of age, have genital HSV-2 infection.
