Laboratory assay overview

This assay is a qualitative test for the confirmation of specific IgG antibodies recognizing Taenia solium, the agent causing cysticerosis. Detection of antibodies to any of 6 specific T. solium glycoprotein bands of molecular weights 50,42-30,24,21,18 and 14 kilodaltons is interpreted as a positive result. However, a positive result without reactivity to the 50 and 42-39 glycoprotein bands may reflect crossreactive antibodies induced by echinococcosis.

Verify these ranges and sources

We compile every detail above directly from named laboratory directories and published clinical studies. Laboratories calculate standard reference intervals from the statistical distribution of tested populations for a specific assay method and demographic group, rather than setting universal optimal targets.

Always review your personal lab results with a licensed clinician, or track your lab history and health goals in Aumnivida.
