SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION:

Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a human herpesvirus responsible for primary infection (varicella, or chickenpox) and later reactivation (herpes zoster, or shingles). Transmission occurs through airborne respiratory droplets or direct contact with vesicular fluid. Primary infection is characterized by a vesicular rash and systemic symptoms; reactivation presents with localized dermatomal lesions. IgM antibodies typically appear during acute or recent infection. This assay enables qualitative detection of VZV-specific IgM in human serum or plasma for research on immune response and seroepidemiology.
