Abstract
The effectiveness and necessity of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination to prevent HPV infection and cervical cancer are increasingly recognized by people. The 15-valent HPV vaccine, which protects against almost high-risk types of HPV viruses identified by WHO, has attracted much attention. However, as the valence of vaccines increases, quality control in the HPV vaccine production process is facing more challenges. The precise quality control of the HPV type 68 virus-like particles (VLPs), one of the unique components of the 15-valent HPV vaccine that distinguishes it from existing vaccines, is the new requirement for vaccine manufacturers. Here we developed a novel time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA) for rapid and precise automatic quality control of HPV68 VLPs in HPV vaccine. Two murine monoclonal antibodies specifically targeting the HPV68 L1 protein were used to establish a classical sandwich assay. Except for pretreating the vaccine sample, the whole analysis process was performed by a fully automated machine, which saves detection time and gets rid of manual error. Multiple experiments established that the current novel TRFIA can efficiently and reliably analyses HPV68 VLPs. Present novel TRFIA has exhibited merits with speed, robustness, high sensitivity with a minimum detection value of 0.08 ng/mL, considerable accuracy, a wide detection range (up to 1000 ng/mL) and excellent specificity. It is also expected to provide a new detection method for quality control for each HPV type VLPs. To summarize, the novel TRFIA is of great interest for application in HPV vaccine quality control.

Abstract
Herpes is a widespread viral infection caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV) that has no permanent cure to date. There are two subtypes, HSV-1 and HSV-2, that are known to cause a variety of symptoms, ranging from acute to chronic. HSV is highly contagious and can be transmitted via any type of physical contact. Additionally, viral shedding can also happen from asymptomatic infections. Thus, early and accurate detection of HSV is needed to prevent the transmission of this infection. Herpes can be diagnosed in two ways, by either detecting the presence of the virus in lesions or the antibodies in the blood. Different detection techniques are available based on both laboratory and point of care (POC) devices. Laboratory techniques include different biochemical assays, microscopy, and nucleic acid amplification. In contrast, POC techniques include microfluidics-based tests that enable on-spot testing. Here, we aim to review the different diagnostic techniques, both laboratory-based and POC, their limits of detection, sensitivity, and specificity, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.

Abstract
Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease caused by herpes simplex virus type1 (HSV-1) and type2 (HSV-2) belonging to the alphaherpesvirus family, that includes the varicella zoster virus. HSV infection continues to be the most common cause of vulvar ulcers among the sexually active population. Its incidence increases every year. This review summarises the microbiology of the virus, pathogenesis and infection in genitalia, clinical manifestations and correct identification, the different laboratory diagnostic methods, and choice of the correct treatment according to the first infection, recurrence or special cases. Finally, the cost of routine herpes simplex virus infection is analysed.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to establish a time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TRFIA) system for quantitative analysis of saikosaponin a (SSa) in the crude drug of Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix). A 96-well microplate coated with rabbit anti-mouse IgG was incubated with the methanol extracts of Chaihu samples and a mouse anti-SSa monoclonal antibody, and a Eu3+-labeled SSa-human serum albumin conjugate was used as the tracer. The established competitive TRFIA showed a good fourth order polynomial fitting from 0.01 to 10.0 μg/mL for standard SSa sample with a detection limit of 0.006 μg/mL. The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation of the assay were 7.3% and 8.9%, respectively, and the average SSa recovery was 119.2%. For samples of Chaihu extract, the results of this assay showed a good correlation with those by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay established previously. This TRFIA system is ultrasensitive for detecting SSa with a wide detection range and a good stability and represents the first attempt of using TRFIA for quality evaluation of the crude drug of Chaihu.
