Date:3/28/2011

ults.  BD's new automated HSV assays also provide laboratories with the capability to read up to 96 positive or negative results in about two and a half hours.  Using the BD Viper System with XTR Technology, laboratories also will be able to test other samples for chlamydia and gonorrhea on the same automated run used for the BD ProbeTec HSV1 and HSV2 Qx Assays.  

The assays are not FDA cleared for use with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or any lesions other than anogenital lesions.  The assays are not intended to be used for prenatal screening or for individuals under the age of 17 years.
