Rubella IgM

Product Description

The Rubella IgM test is a two-step capture chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA), for use on IDS automated analyzers, for quantitative determination of specific IgM class antibodies directed against the Rubella virus in samples of human serum or plasma (K3-EDTA, Sodium Citrate).

This assay is used as a diagnostic aid when assessing immunity status of patients related to Rubella virus infection.

  • Complete panel for the diagnosis of Rubella with IgG, IgM and IgG Avidity testing
  • Significant sensitivity in the primary infection for both IgG and IgM tests
  • The high specificity of the IgM test allows the observation of decreasing IgM concentration three months after the onset of the infection
  • The capture method of Rubella IgM does not require the confirmatory test
