About Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test | Oral Herpes Testing in Golden Gate
Herpes simplex virus type 1 is a widespread virus best known for causing oral herpes, though it can also infect the genital area.
The test works by measuring IgG antibodies, which are specific to HSV-1 and typically become detectable weeks after infection. A blood sample is analyzed using an enzyme-linked assay to distinguish HSV-1 from HSV-2.
Oral herpes often presents as cold sores or fever blisters around the mouth, but many people with HSV-1 have mild or no noticeable symptoms. Because transmission can occur without visible sores, laboratory testing offers a reliable way to determine infection status.
Results are reported as positive, negative, or indeterminate based on the presence and level of antibodies. A positive result indicates prior exposure to HSV-1, while a negative result suggests no detectable antibodies at the time of testing.
