Introduction
- The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device is a professional infectious disease and ToRCH rapid test designed for qualitative detection and differentiation of Herpes Simplex Virus IgG and IgM antibodies.
- This rapid antibody test is suitable for whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens.
- The test supports fast HSV antibody-based assessment in hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, clinics, gynecology centers, and professional healthcare screening programs.
- Results should be interpreted with symptoms, exposure history, pregnancy status when relevant, and confirmatory testing if required.
What Is Covid Ag Test
The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device is an antibody-based rapid test that helps detect immune response markers related to Herpes Simplex Virus infection. HSV has two major types: HSV-1, commonly associated with oral infection, and HSV-2, commonly associated with genital infection, although both types can affect different body areas.
Importance
- The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device supports fast screening where HSV infection or immune response needs clinical evaluation.
- IgM may appear earlier in some infections, while IgG usually suggests previous exposure or longer-term immune response.
- HSV testing may be used in infectious disease screening, reproductive health evaluation, prenatal-related ToRCH panels, and cases where a healthcare professional suspects HSV exposure.
- HSV IgM testing has limitations and results must be interpreted carefully by healthcare professionals.
Intended Use
The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device by LARKSOIS Pharma may be used in professional infectious disease, ToRCH, and reproductive health screening environments.
Applications
- HSV antibody screening
- ToRCH-related infectious disease evaluation
- Whole blood, serum, or plasma testing
- Gynecology and reproductive health workflows
- Clinical screening before confirmatory testing
- Hospital and laboratory diagnostic support
- Professional point-of-care testing
- Prenatal-related screening support
- International infectious disease testing programs
How It Works
- The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device generally works on a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay principle.
- A whole blood, serum, or plasma sample is added to the test device, followed by buffer if required.
- The sample migrates along the membrane by capillary action.
- If HSV-specific IgG or IgM antibodies are present, they react with test components and produce visible test lines.
- The control line confirms correct sample migration and valid test performance.
Method
The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device uses rapid lateral flow immunochromatographic technology for qualitative detection and differentiation of HSV IgG and IgM antibodies in whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens.
Benefits
- Rapid HSV antibody detection
- Detects and differentiates IgG and IgM antibodies
- Suitable for whole blood, serum, or plasma
- Lateral flow rapid test format
- Professional diagnostic use
- Supports ToRCH and infectious disease screening
- Simple testing workflow
- Useful for hospitals, clinics, and laboratories
Specimen
The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device is designed for whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens. Correct specimen collection and handling are important for reliable rapid test performance.
Guidance
- Use approved whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens only
- Collect specimens according to the product insert
- Use clean and suitable sample collection materials
- Avoid contaminated or improperly stored samples
- Apply the specimen correctly to the sample area
- Add buffer according to instructions
- Read results only within the recommended time window
- Handle all blood specimens as potentially infectious material
Note
Specimen collection, testing, timing, and storage should always follow the official LARKSOIS Pharma kit insert.
Cut Off
The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device by LARKSOIS Pharma is designed for qualitative detection and differentiation of IgG and IgM antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus in whole blood, serum, or plasma samples.
Clinical Importance
- HSV IgM may suggest recent immune response, but HSV IgM testing has limitations and is not always type-specific.
- HSV IgG usually suggests previous exposure or longer-term immune response.
- The test may support ToRCH-related infectious disease evaluation, gynecology workflows, and clinical screening before confirmatory testing.
- Results should be interpreted with symptoms, exposure history, pregnancy status when relevant, and additional laboratory evaluation.
Limitations
The HSV IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device is a professional screening aid and should not be used as the only basis for diagnosis or treatment decisions. HSV IgM results require careful interpretation because they may not be type-specific and may appear during recurrent episodes.
Instructions
- For professional in-vitro diagnostic use only
- Use approved whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens only
- Improper specimen collection may affect results
- False positive or false negative results may occur
- HSV IgM results should be interpreted carefully
- Clinical evaluation and confirmatory testing may be required
- Read results only within the recommended time
- Follow the official product insert carefully

- Open the sealed pouch only when ready to test
- Place the test device on a clean and flat surface
- Add whole blood, serum, or plasma to the sample area
- Add buffer according to the product insert
- Wait for the recommended reaction time
- Read the IgG, IgM, and control lines within the valid time window
- Do not interpret results after the recommended reading time
- Dispose of used materials according to laboratory safety procedures

Result Interpretation
Positive
HSV IgG positive may suggest previous exposure or longer-term immune response. HSV IgM positive may suggest recent immune response but requires careful clinical interpretation.
Negative
A negative result means HSV IgG/IgM antibodies were not detected at the test’s detectable level.
Invalid
If the control line does not appear, the test is invalid and should be repeated with a new device.
