Brief Summary: An increase prevalence of CMV EBV and or HHV-6 in diseased tissue of inflammatory bowel disease would suggest a role for these viruses in the etiology andor exacerbation of IBD whereas their absence would preclude such association
Detailed Description: The protocol is designed to evaluate the following objectives

1 The prevalence of cytomegalovirus Epstein Barr virus and human herpes 6 virus DNA in inflamed intestinal mucosa of patients with Crohns colitis and ulcerative colitis compared to their prevalence in healthy intestinal mucosa of patients not affected by these conditions
2 To evaluate the prevalence of cytomegalovirus Epstein Barr virus and human herpes 6 virus DNA in the intestinal mucosa of patients with Crohns colitis and ulcerative colitis compared to that in inflamed mucosa caused by other conditions non specific colitis
3 To compare the prevalence of cytomegalovirus Epstein Barr virus and human herpes 6 virus DNA in inflamed and healthy tissue in the same patients with Crohns colitis and ulcerative colitis
4 To determine whether the presence of cytomegalovirus Epstein Barr virus and human herpes 6 virus DNA detected by nPCR correlates with immunohistochemical detection of viral protein in colonic tissue
5 To determine whether the relative viral quantity of CMV EBV or HHV-6 is related to severity of disease activity
