The VIRAPID® MONO is a rapid immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) markers in human serum or plasma samples. This multitest device simultaneously detects four key serological markers — PB-HA (heterophile antibodies), VCA-IgM, VCA-IgG, and EBNA-IgG — providing a complete diagnostic profile for infectious mononucleosis (IM) in a single test.
Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infects most humans, often asymptomatically during childhood. However, in adolescents and adults, it is the leading cause of infectious mononucleosis, a condition that can mimic hematological diseases. The VIRAPID® MONO test offers a fast, accurate, and cost-effective diagnostic tool for identifying EBV infections with high sensitivity and specificity.

Clinical Background
EBV infection is a common viral illness that can cause infectious mononucleosis, often presenting with fever, sore throat, lymphadenopathy, and fatigue. Diagnosis is based on serological detection of antibodies to EBV antigens.
The VIRAPID® MONO test simplifies the diagnostic process by combining all major EBV serological markers into one device, reducing the need for multiple assays. This makes it ideal for use in clinical laboratories, hospitals, and diagnostic centers requiring rapid and reliable differentiation of EBV infections.
Applications
- Diagnosis of Infectious Mononucleosis (IM) caused by EBV.
- Differential diagnosis from other hematologic or febrile conditions.
- Screening for EBV exposure or immune status in clinical and research settings.
- Rapid testing in hospitals, outpatient clinics, and diagnostic laboratories.
