Product detailed description

Mycoplasma pneum antibody test

The Mycoplasma pneumoniae IgA, IgG, IgM test is used to diagnose infection caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae, a common cause of respiratory diseases, especially pneumonia. The test measures levels of IgA, IgG and IgM antibodies in the patient's blood:

IgM antibodies appear early after infection and their presence indicates the acute phase of the disease.
IgA antibodies are often present in the early stages of infection, especially in mucosal infections.
IgG antibodies appear later and their presence indicates ongoing or past infection or immunity to the pathogen.

Thus, the examination helps to determine the stage of infection and the presence of an immune response.

Patients with respiratory symptoms

The test is indicated for patients with symptoms of respiratory infection such as cough, fever, sore throat, shortness of breath or chest pain

Children and young adults

Since Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a common cause of pneumonia in school children and young adults, testing is especially recommended in these age groups if they have symptoms of infection.
