A newly developed IgG antibody avidity test for human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) was used in a study of primary and recurrent HHV-6 antibody responses in immunocompromised solid organ graft recipients. In a primary HHV-6 infection low avidity antibody was detected which matured to high avidity within 5 m
