abstract: The screening of zoster's antibodies has been performed in blood donors population and persons convalescing from herpes zoster. The results show that 25% of blood donors and 83,5% of convalescents have respectively a titer of CF antibody of 8. Plasma units were pooled and the pool had a final titer of CF antibody of 16. Varicella zoster immunoglobulin prepared by alcohol fractionation had a fluorescent antibody titer of 1 024 and a CF antibody of 512. These results are discussed and compared with those of literature.
