  • Title: Indirect hemagglutination test for varicella-zoster infection.
    Author: Furukawa T, Plotkin SA.
    Journal: Infect Immun; 1972 Jun; 5(6):835-9. PubMed ID: 4344091.
    Abstract:
    An indirect hemagglutination test has been adapted for use with varicella-zoster serology. Antigen was made in infected WI-38 human diploid cell line. The indirect hemagglutination antigen seemed to be a subunit of the virus particle. The antibodies measured in the test are well correlated with neutralizing and complement-fixing antibodies in cases of zoster but not in cases of varicella.
