About Varicella VZV Titer Test | Chicken Pox IgG Immunity Testing in Simi Valley
The Varicella VZV Titer Test is a blood test that detects IgG antibodies against the varicella-zoster virus.
Varicella-zoster virus is a highly contagious herpesvirus. Primary infection causes chickenpox, after which the virus remains dormant in nerve tissues and can reactivate later as shingles. Immunity is typically lifelong after chickenpox, though vaccination also provides protection.
The test measures IgG antibodies, which indicate past exposure or vaccination. A positive result generally means immunity, while a negative result suggests susceptibility. It does not diagnose active infection; IgM or PCR tests are used for that purpose.
This test is often used for pre-employment screening in healthcare, before pregnancy, or for individuals without a history of chickenpox. It requires a blood sample and results are typically available in 1-3 business days.
