Interpretive Data

Assay Display	Interpretive Data
EBV Interp	In most populations at least 90% of the adult population will have been infected with EBV some time in the past and therefore will be positive for anti-VCA/IgG and anti-EBNA. Antibodies to EBNA develop 6-8 weeks after primary infection and remain present for life. Presence of VCA/IgM antibodies indicates recent primary infection with EBV.
