ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods to detect herpes simplex virus (HSV) in biological samples and further to distinguish between HSV-1 and HSV-2. Primers and probes for the differential detection of HSV-1 and HSV-2 are provided by the invention. Articles of manufacture containing such primers and probes for detecting HSV are further provided by the invention.
