## Indications for use
MRL Diagnostics' HSV-2 ELISA IgG test is intended for qualitatively detecting the presence or absence of human IgG class antibodies to HSV-2 in human sera. In conjunction with the MRL HSV-1 ELISA IgG, the test is indicated for testing sexually active adults or expectant mothers for aiding in the presumptive diagnosis of HSV infection. The predictive value of a positive or negative result depends on the population's prevalence and the pretest likelihood of HSV-2 infection. The performance of this assay has not been established for use in a pediatric population, for neonatal screening, for testing of immunocompromised patients, or for use with automated equipment.
