Coxsackievirus Coxsackieviruses belongs to the genus Enterovirus and causes mild flu-like symptoms that generally go away without treatment. In some cases, especially in infants, infections can lead to more serious diseases such as viral meningitis, encephalitis and myocarditis. Outbreaks of coxsackievirus often occur in the summer and fall, though they can cause infections year-round in tropical parts of the world. Specificity Type Catalog # Host / Source Tested Apps Format Isotype Coxsackie A9 Ag R17900 LLC-MK2 Cells EIA, WB Lysate – Coxsackie A16 Ag R17160 LLC-MK2 Cells EIA, WB Lysate – Coxsackievirus B1 (Tucson strain) VP1, Recombinant Ag R01517 E. coli EIA, WB Purified – Cytomegalovirus (CMV) CMV infection is typically asymptomatic in healthy persons, however immunocompromised individuals and newborn infants are at high-risk of developing life-threatening complications from primary infections and reactivations. Congenital cytomegalovirus specifically refers to a group of symptoms that occur when an infant is infected with CMV before birth. The risk for congenital CMV is almost exclusively associated with women who are having their first infection during pregnancy.
