Order Immunity Detection & Titer TestingImmunity detection and titer testing measures the level of specific antibodies in the blood to determine whether a person has protective immunity against a particular infectious disease. Rather than simply reporting a positive or negative result, a titer quantifies antibody concentration, which can indicate whether prior infection or vaccination has produced a measurable immune response.
About Immunity Detection & Titer Testing in Lafayette
Titer testing provides a quantitative view of antibody levels rather than a simple yes-or-no answer.
Antibodies are proteins produced by the immune system in response to an infection or vaccination. A titer test measures the concentration of these antibodies in a blood sample, often expressed as a ratio such as 1:40 or 1:80. Higher ratios generally indicate a stronger or more recent immune response.
Different diseases require different threshold values to be considered protective, and these thresholds are established by public health and clinical guidelines. For some conditions, a result above the threshold suggests adequate immunity, while a result below it may indicate that protection has waned or was never established.
Titer testing is commonly used for diseases such as measles, mumps, rubella, varicella, hepatitis B, and hepatitis A. It can help clarify immune status when vaccination records are unavailable, incomplete, or uncertain, and it is sometimes used before certain medical treatments or occupational exposures.
