Direct immunoperoxidase technique using a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated Fab' fragment of human monoclonal antibody (humab C7), designated HRP-C7, was evaluated as a rapid diagnosis of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. A total of 138 clinical specimens consisting of 124 urine samples and 14 oral swabs were examined for CMV by the direct HRP-C7 staining in comparison with conventional virus isolation. The number of CMV-positive samples by each method was 40 (29.0%) for the former and 37 (26.8%) for the latter, respectively. By HRP-C7 staining, CMV was identifiable within 24 hr after inoculation. By conventional isolation method, an average of 10.3 days had passed before cytopathic effect characteristic of CMV appeared in the cell culture. Some false-positive and false-negative cases were discussed in relation to toxicity of urine samples, storage of the samples, and amount of CMV in the sample. The sensitivity and specificity of HRP-C7 method against conventional isolation method were 89.2% and 93.1%, respectively. Thus, HRP-C7 staining is useful for a rapid diagnosis of CMV infections.
