SUMMARY Acute parvovirus B19 infection is a risk for pregnant women. After vertical transmission the infected fetus may develop hydrops fetalis. Since occurs mainly during childhood, children represent main source virus transmission. In order to determine whether certain groups in German population show increased risks we analysed seroprevalence using 6583 sera collected from adults former Eastern and Western Germany National Health Survey 649 healthy Thuringian adolescents. overall was...

This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of antibodies herpes simplex virus types 1 (HSV-1) and 2 (HSV-2) in selected German populations, such as blood donors, hospital patients, human immunodeficiency (HIV)-seropositive individuals. Serum samples collected between 1996 1998 were tested by enzyme immunoassays using monoclonal antibody-selected native gG1 gG2 antigens an immunoblot type-specific recombinant glycoproteins. Equivocal results resolved "in-house" Western blot assay....
Herpes simplex virus type 1 is a common cause of severe sporadic encephalitis. Treatment with acyclovir highly effective in this disease. We report the case 27-year-old, immunocompetent woman acyclovir-resistant herpes Although she had not been treated before, DNA from cerebrospinal fluid showed non-synonymous mutation thymidine kinase gene, which likely to have caused resistance acyclovir. encephalitis resolved after treatment foscarnet. To our knowledge, first an immunocompetent,...
ABSTRACT Genotyping of 21 varicella-zoster virus (VZV) strains using a scattered single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) method revealed ambiguous SNPs and two nontypeable isolates. For further genetic characterization, the genomes all were sequenced 454 technology. Almost-complete genome sequences assembled, most remaining gaps closed with Sanger sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis 42 five established novel VZV genotypes, provisionally termed VIII IX. Genotypes IX are distinct from previously...

Since the introduction of varicella vaccination in several countries, there has been an urgent need for commercially available test procedures that allow highly sensitive and specific quantitative determination varicella-zoster virus (VZV)-specific immune status, including immunity postimmunization. This study compared performance two enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) VZV-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) seronegative latently infected persons, as well vaccinees. One ELISA is based...
