What is BETA 2 GLYCOPROTEIN 1 ANTIBODIES, IGG?

This test measures IgG antibodies directed against Beta 2 Glycoprotein 1, a protein that plays a role in regulating blood clotting. The presence of these antibodies can indicate an autoimmune response where the body mistakenly attacks its own components.

Why is this test important?

IgG antibodies to Beta 2 Glycoprotein 1 are a key marker for Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS), an autoimmune disorder linked to an increased risk of blood clots in arteries and veins, as well as complications during pregnancy. This test is crucial for diagnosis and management.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required. A blood sample will be collected.
