Rubella Virus Avidity

The Rubella Virus Avidity test measures the levels of IgG antibodies against the Rubella virus in your blood. IgG antibodies against the Rubella virus play a crucial role in the immune response, providing long-term protection. These antibodies, produced after infection or vaccination, neutralise the virus, preventing its spread and contributing to immunity against Rubella. Another purpose of the test is evaluation of the risk of congenital rubella syndrome during pregnancy. Your doctor may recommend this test if you are planning to get pregnant or are pregnant to check for immunity against rubella, exposed to someone with rubella, showing symptoms of rubella, such as rash or fever, and if you are a healthcare worker or daycare provider. The normal range for IgG antibodies against the rubella virus is a positive result, indicating immunity. If the result is negative or equivocal, it may suggest no immunity or recent infection. Your doctor will interpret the results in combination with your medical history, symptoms, and other diagnostic tests.
