Quick answer
The Varicella VZV Titer Test is a blood test that measures immunoglobulin G antibodies against the varicella zoster virus, the virus that causes chickenpox. A positive result generally indicates immunity from previous infection or vaccination. It is often ordered to check immunity before exposure risk, during pregnancy planning, or for healthcare and school requirements. A qualified healthcare provider interprets the result.
What this test measures
Varicella zoster virus causes chickenpox, usually in childhood, and then remains dormant in the body. It can reactivate later as shingles. After infection or vaccination, the immune system typically produces IgG antibodies that provide protection against chickenpox.
The test requires a blood sample from a vein, and the serum is analyzed for varicella zoster IgG antibodies. The report indicates whether antibodies are present and may include a quantitative level. In some cases, a follow-up test is used to assess response after vaccination.
Clinicians order this titer to determine immune status in people without a reliable history of chickenpox or vaccination, and in settings such as healthcare work, pregnancy planning, and school or employment screening. The result supports decisions about vaccination, which should be made with a qualified healthcare provider.
