About Viral STDs Testing: HIV, Herpes & Hepatitis in Ballwin
Viral STDs Testing: HIV, Herpes & Hepatitis Screen measures antibodies and, where appropriate, antigens or viral markers associated with seven viral infections.
HIV Type 1 and Type 2 are retroviruses that attack the immune system; testing typically detects antibodies to the virus, and some assays also detect the p24 antigen or viral RNA to shorten the window period before detection.
Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 and Type 2 are closely related viruses that can cause oral or genital lesions; type-specific antibody tests distinguish between the two, although a positive result indicates exposure rather than the presence of active sores.
Hepatitis A, B, and C are distinct viruses that affect the liver. Hepatitis A is typically transmitted through fecal-oral contact, while Hepatitis B and C are transmitted through blood and sexual contact; the panel uses serological markers such as surface antigens and antibodies to identify current or past infection.
