About Hepatitis B Immunity Status Test | Hep B in Wake Forest
This test detects IgG and IgM antibodies specific to hepatitis B, providing a clear picture of immune status.
Hepatitis B is a viral infection that affects the liver and can lead to chronic disease, cirrhosis, or liver cancer. Immunity can be acquired through vaccination or resolved natural infection, both of which produce antibodies that the immune system retains.
The test measures IgG and IgM antibodies against hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) and core antigen (anti-HBc). The presence of anti-HBs alone typically indicates vaccine-induced immunity, while anti-HBc with or without anti-HBs suggests past natural infection.
Results are reported as positive or negative for each antibody type. A positive anti-HBs result generally signifies protective immunity. The test does not diagnose active infection; separate tests are required for that purpose.
