Toxoplasma gondii IgG Antibodies Test

Report Delivery Time: Same Day

Recommended Gender: Both

Sample Type: Blood

The Toxoplasma gondii IgG Antibodies Test detects past exposure to the Toxoplasma gondii parasite, which causes toxoplasmosis. This blood test helps assess immunity, especially in pregnant women and immunocompromised individuals. A positive result typically indicates a previous infection and possible immunity. It is essential for prenatal screening and risk assessment.

Introduction:

The Toxoplasma gondii IgG Antibodies Test is a serological test used to detect the presence of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii, the parasite responsible for toxoplasmosis. This test helps determine whether an individual has been previously infected and may now be immune.

Why is the Test Done?

  • To screen for past Toxoplasma gondii infection.

  • As part of prenatal care to assess the risk of congenital toxoplasmosis.

  • In immunocompromised patients (e.g., HIV/AIDS or cancer patients) to evaluate the risk of reactivation.

  • To differentiate between past and recent infections when used with an IgM test.

Who Should Get This Test?

  • Pregnant women as part of routine prenatal screening.

  • Immunocompromised individuals at risk of opportunistic infections.

  • Individuals with flu-like symptoms and a possible exposure history.

  • Those who consume undercooked meat or have close contact with cats (possible sources of infection).

Test Procedure & Preparation:

  • Sample Type: Blood sample

  • Fasting Required: No fasting is needed

  • Preparation: No special preparation is required

  • The test involves a simple blood draw to measure IgG antibody levels.

Understanding the Results:

  • Positive IgG: Indicates past exposure and possible immunity; usually not an active infection.

  • Negative IgG: No prior exposure; the individual is susceptible to infection.

  • If the recent infection is suspected, an IgM test and avidity testing may be ordered for confirmation.
