Antibody Against Chicken Pox(Vericella) Price in Bangladesh

What is Antibody Against Chicken Pox(Vericella)?

The Antibody Against Chickenpox (Varicella) test detects the presence of antibodies in the blood against the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which causes chickenpox. This test helps determine whether someone has been previously infected with the virus or has received the varicella vaccine.

It is used to assess immunity to chickenpox, especially in individuals who may be at risk of exposure, such as healthcare workers or pregnant women. A positive result indicates immunity, while a negative result suggests susceptibility to infection.

The test is performed using a blood sample, and the risks are minimal, usually involving slight discomfort during the blood draw.

What to expect & how to prepare

A sample is collected at the centre and analysed in the laboratory. The sample type — blood, urine, stool or another body fluid — depends on the specific test, and the collection staff will tell you which one applies.

• Fasting: only some laboratory tests need fasting, and this varies test by test. Ask the centre whether fasting is required for this specific test when you book, rather than assuming.
• Medication: tell the laboratory about medicines, supplements and recent injections, because some can affect results.
• Requesting slip: bring the doctor's advice or previous reports so the laboratory runs and compares the right test.
• Report timing: turnaround differs between routine and specialised tests — the centre will tell you when your report is ready.

Have a registered doctor interpret the result together with your symptoms rather than self-diagnosing from reference ranges.
