Clinical Significance
This panel provides presumptive evidence of immunity to measles, mumps and rubella for purposes of routine vaccination, for students at post-high school educational institutions, and for international travelers.
Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) causes chicken pox and when reactivated, potentially decades later, causes shingles. Twenty percent of adults will develop shingles, a rash or blister of the skin that may cause severe pain. Varicella-Zoster IgG, EIA reliably measures immunity due to previous infection but is unsuitable for detection of post-vaccination immune status.
