BRUCELLA ANTI BODY IgM & IGG

The identification of Brucella infection typically involves assessing specific antibodies, such as Immunoglobulin M (IgM) and Immunoglobulin G (IgG). IgM antibodies are usually the initial immune response in the early stages of a Brucella infection, indicating an acute or ongoing phase. Elevated IgM levels suggest recent exposure to the bacteria. Conversely, IgG antibodies emerge later and can persist, indicating a past or chronic infection. The combined assessment of IgM and IgG provides crucial insights for the diagnosis and monitoring of brucellosis. However, result interpretation should be approached with caution, taking into account clinical symptoms, patient history, and the potential for false positives or negatives. For a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate management aligned with the clinical context, it is advisable to seek guidance from healthcare professionals, especially those at Hypro Diagnostics.
