Abstract excerpt

We report the use of a prototype Invader Plus method (Third Wave Technologies, Inc., Madison, WI) for the qualitative detection of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) and differentiation of wild-type and Oka vaccine VZV. The analytical sensitivity of the VZV Invader Plus reagents is at 10 copies per reaction. A total of 174 skin and mucous swab specimens were used to validate the assay's performance. The sensitivity and...
