Examination 1: detection of genital herpes antigen: after genital herpes infects human epidermal cells, it proliferates and synthesizes capsid protein in cells to become genital herpes antigen component. Immunoenzyme staining can detect genital herpes antigen component in infected tissue cells to know whether there is genital herpes infection. Genital herpes antigen positive is of great significance in the diagnosis of genital herpes infection or genital herpes.

Examination 2: detection of genital herpes antibody: some scholars found that in the early stage of genital herpes infection, due to the short time of infection, HPV has not induced the production of anti genital herpes antibody, so anti genital herpes antibody may not be detected in the serum. With the extension of infection time of genital herpes, anti genital herpes antibody was induced by genital herpes, so anti genital herpes antibody in serum could be detected. This indicated that the antibody appeared in the later stage of genital herpes, and the antibody positive also reflected that they had been infected with the virus.
