Citoviral product description

Analysis of human samples to identify HSV type I and II (immunofluorescence). Tear sampling examination for immunofluorescence identification of HSV type I and II epitopes to evaluate the presence of herpes at the ocular level.

This examination has a double value: by detecting the expression of the virus directly at the ocular level, we can establish the correct procedure of therapy and its effectiveness. A monitoring value during therapy is associated with the diagnostic value of the examination.
