Salmonella Typhi (Typhidot) IgG & IgM near me in Lucknow










A Salmonella Typhi (Typhidot) IgG & IgM test, available at an affordable price in Lucknow with Tata 1mg labs helps confirm the diagnosis of typhoid fever by detecting antibodies: immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin M (IgM). These antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to Salmonella typhi, the typhoid-causing bacteria, and help differentiate between recent and past typhoid infection and aid in the appropriate and timely management of the infection. The presence of IgM antibodies in the blood often suggests a recent or active infection, while the presence of IgG antibodies suggests prior exposure.
You can consider getting tested if you are experiencing symptoms like fever, weakness, headache, loss of appetite, pink-colored spots, pain in the abdomen, chills, nausea or vomiting, constipation, muscle weakness, skin rash, etc., or if you have traveled to an area where typhoid is prevalent. No special preparation is required for this test; you may eat and drink as per your daily routine.

The Salmonella Typhi (Typhidot) IgG test is performed to detect the presence or absence of IgG antibodies against Salmonella typhi, the bacteria that causes typhoid fever. IgG antibodies are the most frequent type of antibody, which are developed at a later stage, usually 2-3 weeks after the virus invades the body and causes the infection, and it remains in the body for life. Thus, IgG antibodies indicate if an individual has been infected with typhoid.
