Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Strain-specific antibodies to human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) glycoproteins B and H (gB and gH) have been proposed as a potential diagnostic tool for identifying reinfection. We investigated genotype-specific IgG antibody responses in parallel with defining the gB and gH genotypes of the infecting viral strains. METHODS: Subjects with primary (n = 20) or non-primary (n = 25) HCMV infection were studied....
