What is JC/Bk Virus DNA detection Plasma?

This test identifies the presence of DNA from JC (John Cunningham) and BK viruses in your blood plasma. It helps determine if these viruses are actively replicating and circulating in your bloodstream.

Why is this test important?

Detecting JC/BK virus DNA in plasma is important for monitoring viral activity, especially in transplant recipients or individuals with weakened immune systems. BK virus in plasma is often associated with kidney disease (BKVN) in transplant patients.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
