These tests assess your immune function.
-
IgE Test: Measures the level of Immunoglobulin E antibodies, which are associated with allergic responses.
-
IgG Test: Assesses the level of Immunoglobulin G, the most abundant antibody type, essential for long-term immunity.
-
Immunoglobulin M (IgM): IgM is usually the first antibody type produced in response to an infection. High levels can indicate a recent or current infection.
-
Immunoglobulin A (IgA): IgA plays a critical role in mucosal immunity, being present in mucous membranes lining the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, and saliva. It helps protect against infections in these areas.
