Order Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test | Oral Herpes TestingHerpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a common infection perhaps best known for causing cold sores around the mouth. The Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test uses a blood sample to look for antibodies the immune system produces against this virus.
About Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test | Oral Herpes Testing in Bothell
This test detects antibodies specific to HSV-1, not the virus itself.
The assay, known as HerpeSelect®, identifies immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies that the body creates in response to HSV-1. Because these antibodies take time to develop after exposure, a blood test may not detect a recent infection.
HSV-1 is typically associated with oral herpes, though it can also cause genital herpes through oral-genital contact. Many people with HSV-1 have no symptoms or are unaware they carry the virus.
A positive result indicates past or present infection with HSV-1. It does not indicate whether the virus is active, when infection occurred, or which body site is affected. Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider alongside any symptoms and history.
