The RAMP herpes simplex virus (HSV) culture confirmation test was compared with immunofluorescence (IF) staining with a specific HSV monoclonal antibody reagent for the detection of HSV in centrifugation culture. The RAMP test detected 47 of 57 IF-positive specimens (sensitivity, 88.6%) and agreed with 217 of 220 IF-negative specimens (specificity, 98.6%). The RAMP test can be performed in less than 15 min and gives an immediate visual result. However, the sensitivity and the false-positive and false-negative results need further investigation.
将RAMP单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)培养确认试验与使用特异性HSV单克隆抗体试剂的免疫荧光(IF)染色法进行比较,以检测离心培养物中的HSV。RAMP试验在57份IF阳性标本中检测出47份(灵敏度为88.6%),并与220份IF阴性标本中的217份结果一致(特异性为98.6%)。RAMP试验可在不到15分钟内完成,并能立即给出可视化结果。然而,其灵敏度以及假阳性和假阴性结果仍需进一步研究。
