Herpes simplex virus check
Kao Medical laboratory scientist For the preparation of the type 1 to type 8 herpes infection inspection program that has occurred in Taiwan, herpes virus infection will hide in the dorsal root ganglia. For example: herpes type 1 HSV-1 → Trigeminal ganglion, herpes type 2 HSV-2 → sacrum ganglion. In addition, the PA-PCR-DNA diagnostic method used when clinical folliculitis and acne cannot be confirmed is added.
HSV type 1+2, simple herpesvirus 1&2 type DNA, mixed hybrid type MIXED-DNA
→Sampling procedures usually determined for unknown conditions or highly suspected infection sites
→3,000NTD, report 3 days
HSV type 1 IgG, simple herpesvirus type 1, expressed above the waist and mouth
→ can be regarded as past infection records or recurrence patterns
→500NTD, report 1-2 days
HSV type 1 IgM, herpes simplex virus type 1, expressed above the waist and mouth
→ can be regarded as a recent infection record or initial infection
→800NTD, report 1-2 days
HSV type 2 IgG, herpes simplex virus type 2, expressed below the waist and genitals
→ can be regarded as past infection records or recurrence patterns
→500NTD, report 1-2 days
HSV type 2 IgM, herpes simplex virus type 2, expressed below the waist and genitals
→ can be regarded as a recent infection record or initial infection
→800NTD, report 1-2 days
HSV type 3 VZ-IgG, herpesvirus type 3, is a varicella virus
→Evaluate whether varicella virus is antibody-protective, as a basis for vaccination
→700NTD, report 1-2 days
HSV type 3 VZ-IgM, herpesvirus type 3, is herpes zoster virus
→Assess the active period of herpes zoster virus and varicella virus infection
→1,000NTD, report 7 days
HSV Type 4. Human herpesvirus type 4, also known as EBV kissing virus - EBV-IgG-IgA-IgM
Also known as Epstein-Barr virus, a fourth type of human virus that may cause throat and nasopharyngeal carcinoma
→ Blood antibody 3,000NTD, reported 3-4 days
HSV type 5 DNA. Human herpesvirus type 5, also known as giant cell virus.
Alternative inspection items CMV-IgG, CMV-IgM
→DNA-3,000NTD, report 3-4 days
→ Blood antibody 2,000NTD, reported 3-4 days
HSV type 6 DNA. Rose rash virus, also known as the sixth disease
Belonging to acute illness, manifested in the skin
→5,000NTD, report 3-4 days
HSV type 7 DNA. Human herpesvirus type 7
Will affect the fetus, stealers should be careful
→5,000NTD, report 3-4 days
HSV type 8 DNA. Monkey virus
Named Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, referred to as kSHV
Can be found in people with HIV infection in Kaposi's sarcoma
→5,000NTD, report 3-4 days
★Executing all current herpes virus inspection projects in Taiwan
Blood sampling + urine collection + special opening wound sampling
Cost 30,000NTD, report 7-10 business days

Propionibacterium acnes PCR
Clinically, it is often impossible to confirm whether the skin sign is folliculitis or acne.
Beginning of the Year of the Pig in 2019, PA-PCR is an advanced, high-end test that confirms non-folliculitis
→cost 3000NTD, report 3-4 days
→Network reservation for P. acnes PCR test
