What is H. Pylori IgA (Quantitative)?

This blood test measures the amount of IgA antibodies to H. Pylori bacteria. IgA antibodies are often found in mucous membranes and can indicate an active or recent infection in the digestive tract.

Why is this test important?

Detecting IgA antibodies can help diagnose an active H. Pylori infection, especially in cases where other antibody types might be less clear. It's useful for assessing the presence of the bacteria that can cause stomach ulcers and gastritis.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
