Abstract: ABSTRACT. It is not known if milk antibody protects infants from herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection. As a first step to test this hypothesis, anti-HSV antibodies were studied in human milk. Paired serum and milk samples were analyzed for anti-HSV antibodies by ELISA, Western blot analysis (WBA), neutralization (NT) plaque assay, and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) assay. Nineteen of the 20 serum samples showed anti-HSV activity by ELISA and ADCC, and 18 showed activity by WBA and NT. We found… Show more
