Anti-Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV-gH) Antibody

This purified mouse monoclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets the glycoprotein H (gH) of Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV), the human herpesvirus responsible for chickenpox and shingles. Produced in murine hosts and supplied as an IgG1(k) isotype preparation, the reagent is delivered unconjugated at 100 µg per vial, giving laboratories the flexibility to conjugate it to reporter enzymes or fluorophores as a particular workflow demands.

The antibody is validated for ELISA and IFA applications, supporting serological screening of VZV exposure as well as immunofluorescence-based detection of viral antigen in infected cells. Researchers studying herpesvirus entry mechanisms, membrane fusion events, or the role of gH/gL complexes in cell-to-cell spread will find this clone useful for confirming VZV positivity in patient samples and characterizing viral tropism in culture systems.

Shipped as a single-use vial of purified monoclonal antibody in the Primary Antibodies category, the product pairs cleanly with secondary anti-mouse IgG reagents and standard immunofluorescence counterstains. The unconjugated format keeps the antibody compatible with both chromogenic and fluorescence-based detection chemistries, so the same lot can be deployed across multiple assay platforms within a single research program without re-optimization.
