Description: Herpes simplex type 2 (HSV2) belongs to a family that includes HSV1, Epstein-Barr virus(EBV) and Varicella zoster (chicken pox) virus. HSV1 and HSV2 are extremely difficult todistinguish from each other. These viruses have a DNA genome, an icosahedral proteincoat and are encased in a lipid membrane derived from the nuclear membrane of the lasthost. These viruses are capable of entering a latent phase where the host shows no visiblesign of infection and levels of infectious agent become very low. During the latent phasethe viral DNA is integrated into the genome of the host cell.

Specificity: HSV (II) gB antigen
