Viral infections - Influenza Viruses (IAV and IBV)

Viral and parasitic infection loads, for instance Influenza A, Influenza B, Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (HSV1), Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (HSV2), Toxoplasma Gondii, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), and Procalcitonin, measured with traditional enzymatic tests, such as Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA).

In TRAILS, Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies to Influenza A virus (IAV) and Influenza B virus (IBV) were assessed. IgG is the most common type of antibody and an indicator of immune response against pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. IAV and IBV are the Influenza viruses that primarily circulate in humans and cause seasonal flu epidemics. IgG, IAV and IBV were assessed from a blood sample using traditional enzymatic tests such as Enzyme Immuno Assay (EIA).
