Order Hepatitis A/B/C Immunity TestingHepatitis A, B, and C are distinct viruses that affect the liver, and each prompts a different immune response that laboratory testing can detect. Immunity testing clarifies whether a person carries protective antibodies from vaccination or prior exposure, while also identifying markers of current or past infection.
About Hepatitis A/B/C Immunity Testing in Chicago
Hepatitis A/B/C immunity testing combines several serological markers into a single panel to assess immune status and infection history.
Hepatitis A testing typically measures total or IgG antibodies against the virus. A positive IgG result generally indicates immunity, whether acquired through vaccination or previous infection, whereas IgM antibodies suggest a recent infection.
Hepatitis B testing evaluates a set of markers, including surface antigen, surface antibody, and core antibody. The surface antibody is the principal indicator of protection, while the surface antigen and core antibody help distinguish current infection from resolved or chronic states.
Hepatitis C testing screens for antibodies to the virus, which indicate exposure. Because antibody results alone cannot confirm whether an infection is active, a reactive screen is often followed by a nucleic acid test to detect viral RNA.
