The Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test, also called oral herpes testing, detects antibodies produced by the immune system in response to the herpes simplex type 1 virus. Because these antibodies persist in the blood, the test can identify past exposure even when no symptoms are present.

About Herpes 1 (HSV-1) Test | Oral Herpes Testing in Sandy

HSV-1 is a widespread virus best known for causing oral herpes, though it can also produce genital infections.

The herpes simplex virus exists in two closely related forms. HSV-1 is most often associated with infections of the mouth and lips, while HSV-2 is more commonly linked to genital herpes. Either type can infect either site.

After exposure, the body gradually produces antibodies directed against the virus. This HerpeSelect test measures those antibodies in a blood sample, which allows detection of infection whether or not sores or other symptoms are present.

Many people with HSV-1 have no noticeable symptoms or experience only mild, infrequent outbreaks. Because transmission can occur without visible signs, testing provides information that a physical examination alone may not reveal.
