Abstract

In this paper, 34 samples, 25 from 18 cervical carcinoma patients and 9 from 8 non-cervical carcinoma patients, were assayed using (alpha-32P) dCTP HSV-2 DNA probe and nucleic acid hybridization technic. It was shown that the positive rates of HSV-2 DNA corresponding sequence were 50% (2/4), 36% (5/14) and 12% (1/8) in the in situ cancer, invasive cancer and non-cervical cancer tissues. No HSV was isolated from 7 cancer specimens which showed a positive reaction by nucleic acid hybridization.
