title: The impact of EBV hybridization in clinical and biological medicine.
abstract: Hybridization technology allows the detection of EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus) DNA in lymphoproliferative diseases in immunosuppressed patients. Moreover, in HIV infected patients, LIP (Lymphocytic Interstitial Pneumonitis), hairy leucoplasia and lymphoma are associated with EBV by DNA hybridization. These procedures are also useful for understanding interactions between EBV and epithelial cells.
