Immunity Blood Tests in Leicester

An Immunity Blood Testing service is a diagnostic offering that involves analysing blood samples to assess an individual’s immune system function, including antibody levels, to determine their ability to resist infections and diseases. Immunity blood tests are important tools used to find out if a person is immune to certain diseases, either because they’ve had the disease before or have been vaccinated. For instance, a Hepatitis B immunity test checks for antibodies against the hepatitis B virus to see if someone is protected, which is very important for people who work in healthcare or high-risk places. Likewise, tests for immunity against Chicken Pox (Varicella), Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) look for antibodies that show if someone is immune to these very contagious viral infections.  Cytomegalovirus (CMV) tests show if someone has been exposed to the virus. This is especially important for pregnant women and people with weak immune systems, as CMV can cause serious problems in these groups. The Hepatitis A immunity test checks for antibodies that indicate a past infection or vaccination, which is crucial for preventing the spread of the virus in areas where it is common. Lastly, the Parvovirus blood test, often used for Parvovirus B19, determines if someone has had a past infection with the virus, which can cause issues in pregnant women and those with weakened immune systems. These immunity tests help decide if someone needs vaccinations or extra health precautions to stop these diseases from spreading.

Immunity Blood Tests are tests that evaluate the strength and function of the immune system by measuring different components, such as antibodies, white blood cells, and immunoglobulins. These tests help assess the body’s ability to fight infections and detect immune-related disorders.

These tests are crucial for diagnosing immune deficiencies, and autoimmune disorders, and assessing the effectiveness of vaccines or previous exposure to infections. They provide vital information about how well the immune system is functioning.

Common tests include the Complete Blood Count (CBC) with differential, Immunoglobulin levels (IgG, IgA, IgM), Antibody titers, T-cell and B-cell counts, and tests for specific autoimmune markers like ANA (Antinuclear Antibody) and RF (Rheumatoid Factor).

Immunity Blood Tests can detect the presence of autoantibodies, which are antibodies that mistakenly target the body’s own tissues. Elevated levels of these autoantibodies can indicate autoimmune diseases like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

An Antibody Titer measures the concentration of specific antibodies in the blood, indicating if a person has immunity against certain infections (e.g., after vaccination or previous infection). It is often used to check immunity to diseases like measles, mumps, rubella, and hepatitis.

Yes, these tests can identify deficiencies in immune components, such as low levels of immunoglobulins (e.g., IgG deficiency) or low white blood cell counts, which can make a person more susceptible to infections.

Most immunity tests do not require special preparation. However, some tests may require fasting or avoiding certain medications. Your healthcare provider will provide specific instructions based on the tests being performed.

After vaccination, immunity blood tests can measure specific antibody levels to determine whether the vaccine has successfully generated a protective immune response.

Results typically take a few days to a week, depending on the specific tests and the laboratory processing them. Your healthcare provider will review the results with you and discuss any necessary follow-up actions.

While these tests are highly valuable, they are often part of a broader diagnostic approach. In some cases, additional tests, medical history, and clinical evaluations are necessary to make a definitive diagnosis of immune-related conditions.
