The invention relates to peptides or fragments thereof which are immunochemically reactive with Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) antibodies. New antibodies directed to said peptides or fragments thereof are also part of the invention. The invention also relates to a method for the detection of EBV or antibodies directed against EBV in a test fluid and also to an immunochemical reagent comprising a peptide, a fragment or a polypeptide according to the invention and a test kit to be used when applying the said detection methods. Detection of EBV in a test fluid or tissue specimen using antibodies, monoclonal and polyclonal, directed to the said peptide, which have the characteristics of detecting both native and denatured EBV-EA protein is also part of said invention. <IMAGE> |
