Immunization
Immunizations are the safe and scientifically proven way to protect yourself and your family from infectious diseases.
The measles antibody test determines the patient’s measles immune status. Also known as: measles (rubeola) immunity.
Test Description: Designed to establish if someone has immunity to measles, either from a previous vaccination or infection. It is not intended to be diagnostic for infectious disease and should only be utilized to establish serological status of the patient to measles. Positive results may be found in patients that have not been immunized. In these cases, the patient has a positive serological status to the infectious agent through natural exposure. False positive results may occur. Repeat testing or testing with a different device may be indicated in some settings, e.g., patients with low likelihood of prior infection or vaccination.
The MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) antibodies test is used to determine your measles, mumps, and rubella immune status.
Test Description: Designed to establish serological status of the patient to measles, mumps, and rubella. Positive results may be found in patients that have not been immunized. In these cases, the patient has a positive serological status to the infectious agent through natural exposure. False positive results may occur. Repeat testing or testing with a different device may be indicated in some settings, e.g., patients with low likelihood of prior infection or vaccination.
The MMRV (measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella-zoster) antibodies test is used for the determination of measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella-zoster immune status.
Test Description: This test can establish if someone has immunity to measles, mumps, rubella, and/or varicella-zoster, either from a previous vaccination or infection. It is not intended to be diagnostic for infectious disease and should only be utilized to establish serological status of the patient to measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella-zoster.
Positive results may be found in patients that have not been immunized. In these cases, the patient has a positive serological status to the infectious agent through natural exposure. False positive results may occur. Repeat testing or testing with a different device may be indicated in some settings, e.g., patients with low likelihood of prior infection or vaccination.
The mumps antibody test can be used to establish if someone has immunity to mumps, either from a previous vaccination or infection.
Test Description: This test is not intended to be diagnostic for infectious disease and should only be utilized to establish serological status of the patient to mumps.
Positive results may be found in patients that have not been immunized. In these cases, the patient has a positive serological status to the infectious agent through natural exposure. False positive results may occur. Repeat testing with a different device may be indicated in some settings, e.g., patients with low likelihood of prior infection or vaccination.
This test can be used to establish if someone has immunity to rubella, either from a previous vaccination or infection.
Test Description: This test is not intended to be diagnostic for infectious disease and should only be utilized to establish serological status of the patient to rubella.
Positive results may be found in patients that have not been immunized. In these cases, the patient has a positive serological status to the infectious agent through natural exposure. False positive results may occur. Repeat testing with a different device may be indicated in some settings, e.g., patients with low likelihood of prior infection or vaccination.
This test determines varicella-zoster (chickenpox) immune status.
Test Description: This test is not intended to be diagnostic for infectious disease and should only be utilized to establish serological status of the patient to varicella-zoster.
Positive results may be found in patients that have not been immunized. In these cases, the patient has a positive serological status to the infectious agent through natural exposure. False positive results may occur. Repeat testing or testing with a different device may be indicated in some settings, e.g., patients with low likelihood of prior infection or vaccination.
