Mononucleosis Testing
Mononucleosis or "Mono" is a disease that many know as the “kissing disease.” You may remember hearing about this disease in high school or junior high, or if you have teenagers as this demographic seems to be the most susceptible to the disease. The symptoms of mono are flu-like, and testing for this disease is simple. Doctors can use systems such as the Mono II Test Kit by Acceva (pictured above) to test for the disease. Did you know that more than 90% of adults have been exposed to the EBV virus and once contracted, Mono may be treated, but will continue to lie dormant? For more information about the symptoms of Mononucleosis, the disease itself, and various forms of treatment, read the article posted on our Health Resources page.
