Typhidot igG Test

Description

Typhidot IgG Test
The Typhidot IgG Test is a blood test used to detect IgG antibodies against Salmonella typhi, the bacteria that cause typhoid fever. The presence of IgG antibodies usually indicates a past infection or late-stage typhoid.

Why This Test is Done:

• Detect previous exposure to Salmonella typhi

• Support diagnosis of typhoid fever in later stages

• Differentiate between past and current infections when combined with IgM testing

How It Works:
A blood sample is collected and tested for IgG antibodies. IgG appears later in infection and may remain in the blood for months or years after recovery.

Sample Requirement: Blood sample
Reporting Time: Same day

For accurate diagnosis of acute typhoid, this test is often done along with Typhidot IgM.
