Anticytomegalovirus (Anti-CMV) Immunoglobulin G Avidity in Identification of Pregnant Women at Risk of Transmitting Congenital CMV Infection

Abstract excerpt

In this work, we show that the determination of the anticytomegalovirus antibody avidity carried out before week 18 of gestation is a helpful tool to identify women for enrollment in prenatal diagnosis. This procedure can identify all pregnant women who will give birth to an infected newborn.
