Can EBNA IgG be used to identify reactivation?

It has been suggested that EBNA IgM may be useful in identifying reactivation[114]. The combination of negative EBNA IgG and positive EBNA IgM, in addition to a high degree of avidity for VCA IgG within 3 mo of an acute infection, should reliably indicate reactivation rather than primary EBV infection[67].

What is the optimum index for EBV IgG test?

Optimal Result: 0 – 0.9 index. The EBV (Epstein Barr) Nuclear Antigen Antibodies, IgG test looks for a type of antibody which the body typically develops in response to Epstein-Barr Virus. EBNA antibodies usually appear 2-4 months after infection and persist for the life of the person.

What does it mean if your EBNA AB (IgG) result is too high?

What does it mean if your Epstein Barr Virus (EBNA) AB (IGG) result is too high? The presence of antibodies to EBNA means that the infection occurred in the past. Antibodies to EBNA develop six to eight weeks after the time of infection and are present for life. IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH WITH PRECISION.

What is the prevalence of EBNA-1 IgG deficiency after Epstein Barr virus infection?

In addition, about 5% of the patients do not produce EBNA-1 IgG after EBV infection[103,105] or their levels remain below the limit of detection[37,105]. Furthermore, even when they are produced, they may be lost over time particularly, but not exclusively, in immunocompromised patients[23,103,106].
