title: A rapid technique for distinguishing herpes-simplex virus type 1 from type 2 by restriction-enzyme technology.
abstract: A rapid simplified technique, based on restriction-endonuclease analysis of radioactively labelled D.N.A. is described; it distinguishes herpes-simplex virus type 1 strains from herpes-simplex virus type 2 unambiguously. Large numbers of isolates can be screened in 4--5 days.
