VARICELLA-ZOSTER VIRUS

A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Varicella-zoster virus

Varicella-zoster virus, commonly known as chickenpox, is a highly contagious virus that causes itchy rashes, blisters, and flu-like symptoms. It belongs to the human health sector and can also lead to shingles in adults, a painful rash that can result in long-term nerve damage if not treated promptly. Early detection of varicella-zoster virus is crucial to prevent outbreaks and complications such as pneumonia and encephalitis.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect varicella-zoster virus allows for rapid and accurate identification of the virus in clinical samples, leading to timely treatment and prevention of further spreading. This can greatly reduce the economic burden on healthcare systems and improve patient outcomes by enabling targeted interventions for those infected with the virus.
