ZytoFast® EBV Probe (Digoxigenin)

The ZytoFast EBV-CISH System is designed for the detection of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) RNA in paraffin-embedded tissue sections or cell samples. EBV is a member of the gamma-herpesvirus group and one of the most common viruses in humans. Transmission of EBV requires close, intimate contact with a person excreting the virus in its saliva. EBV is the etiological agent of infectious mononucleosis and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of an increasing number of human malignancies such as Burkitt’s lymphoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and polyclonal lymphomas.
