Description

The Adenovirus IgG/IgM Antibody test detects immune response markers to adenovirus infections in the blood. IgM antibodies indicate recent or acute infection, while IgG antibodies suggest past exposure or immunity. This test is valuable for diagnosing respiratory illnesses, conjunctivitis, and gastroenteritis caused by adenoviruses, as well as for monitoring immune status in immunocompromised patients and epidemiological investigations.
