  • Title: Comparison of a new latex agglutination assay with indirect immunofluorescence to detect varicella-zoster antibodies.
    Author: Klevjer-Anderson P, Anderson LW.
    Journal: Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis; 1993 Oct; 17(3):247-9. PubMed ID: 8112037.
    Abstract:
    A comparison of a latex agglutination assay with an immunofluorescence assay for the detection of varicella-zoster virus antibodies is described. The two tests were completely concordant in their results; therefore the latex agglutination test may be valuable for laboratories that require rapid turnaround time or have limited personnel and equipment.
