SERION ELISA classic

Varicella-Zoster Virus

The SERION ELISA classic Varicella-Zoster Virus IgA, IgG and IgM tests are qualitative and quantitative immunoassays for the detection of human antibodies directed against Varicella-Zoster Virus in serum or plasma. The determination of IgM antibodies is recommended for the confirmation of acute infections. The demonstration of IgG antibodies directed against the VZV glycoprotein allows for the determination of the immune status. The detection of IgA antibodies is particularly recommended for confirmation of reactivations. The SERION ELISA classic Varicella-Zoster Virus IgA and IgG tests allow for the demonstration of intrathecally synthesized antibodies in CSF diagnostics.

Highlights

  • Use of the VZV glycoprotein for the demonstration of IgG antibodies for immune status determination with quantitative presentation of the IgG antibody activity in mIU/ml referenced to the WHO Standard
  • Borderline range of 50-100 mIU/ml according to the recommendations of the Robert-Koch Institute, Berlin, Germany
  • Exclusion of background seroprevalence of IgA antibodies resulting in the specific detection of clinically relevant antibody activities
  • Detection of intrathecally synthesized IgA and IgG antibodies for CSF diagnostics
