What is ANTI DNase B; ANTIDEOXYRIBONUCLEASE B?

This test measures antibodies produced by your body in response to a recent infection with Group A Streptococcus bacteria. It helps determine if you've had a recent strep infection, even if symptoms have passed.

Why is this test important?

Elevated levels of Anti-DNase B antibodies can indicate a recent streptococcal infection, which is important for diagnosing post-streptococcal complications such as rheumatic fever or glomerulonephritis. Early detection can guide appropriate treatment.

How to Prepare
