The IgA and IgG antibody test for Bordetella pertussis (whooping cough) is a blood test used to detect the presence of antibodies against the Bordetella pertussis bacterium in an individual's blood.

This test is suitable for later stages of the illness, unlike the PCR test for whooping cough, which is appropriate for confirming infection within the first three weeks of illness.

Detailed information

Product detailed description

ČERNÝ KAŠEL IgA, IgG

Test for Bordetella pertussis antibodies

Bordetella pertussis is the bacterium that causes whooping cough.

The presence of IgA and IgG antibodies may indicate an active Bordetella pertussis infection.

A positive IgG antibody finding may indicate post-vaccination or post-infection Bordetella pertussis antibodies. An inconclusive IgG test result may indicate possible infection.

Due to the difficulty in unequivocally identifying postvaccination or postinfectious antibodies, a second blood draw at a minimum interval of 14 days is recommended.

Did you know that whooping cough can infect people of all ages?
