Abstract
These results indicate that EBV lytic activity in a subject cannot be inferred from a single measure of EBV in saliva. Also, subjects do not appear to be behave constantly as “EBV shedders” or “non-shedders”. The assay is useful in giving a clear indication of salivary gland EBV lytic activity across a patient cohort - for example, in testing anti-viral drugs in MS.
