Information
Blood test for glandular fever
Antibody test for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), also known as mononucleosis or glandular fever, gives you information about your immunity status and any ongoing infection.
Test for ongoing EBV infection
In glandular fever, IgM antibodies are formed against the EB virus. By analyzing IgM antibodies, you get an assessment of whether there is an ongoing infection.
Check immunity to EBV
The test also includes analysis of IgG antibodies to determine whether you have previously developed immunity to the EBV virus through either previous infection or vaccination.
The importance of testing for EBV antibodies
Glandular fever is a common viral disease that is spread via saliva and can affect people of all ages. The infection is most common in teenagers and young adults, but can also occur in children and the elderly. By testing your EBV antibodies, you can get an estimate of your immunity and get an answer as to whether you have or have had glandular fever.
How long is glandular fever contagious?
Glandular fever, caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, is contagious as long as the virus is present in the saliva. This varies individually and can last for several weeks to months. Contagiousness gradually decreases as symptoms subside, but it is important to be careful with hygiene routines and avoid contact with others throughout the period of illness to minimize infection.
Do you suspect EBV infection?
If you suspect that you may have been infected with EBV, it is important to act quickly. A diagnosis is based on showing both the EBV virus IgM and IgG antibodies through a blood test. If you experience symptoms such as fever, fatigue and sore throat, it is important to seek medical attention for proper treatment and care. Glandular fever can range in severity from mild to severe, and symptoms can last for weeks or even months. In general, EBV is a self-limiting disease, and most people make a full recovery within a few weeks to months. It is important to note that some people can be contagious without symptoms.
Antibodies are part of the body's immune system.
