Infection and immunity, 1982•Am Soc MicrobiolA sensitive radioimmunoassay was used to determine levels of herpes simplex virus (HSV)-
specific immunoglobulin A (IgA) in serial serum samples drawn from patients with primary
HSV infections and from persons with recurrent HSV infections, and in single samples from
90 healthy adults. Significantly rising HSV IgA titers were detected in patients with primary
infections, whereas those with recurrent infections had nonfluctuating titers. Sera of IgG-
seropositive healthy adults were all positive for HSV-specific IgA without special …
