If you believe you're at risk for hepatitis B, hepatitis B testing can provide quick, affordable and accurate results. Many people infected with the hepatitis B virus don't demonstrate any symptoms, but that doesn't mean the virus isn't doing damage. Some carriers of hepatitis B are at risk for chronic hepatitis B, which can cause liver damage and ongoing flu-like symptoms.

If you demonstrate symptoms or believe you may have come in contact with the virus, consider getting hepatitis B testing soon so you can begin taking the necessary measures for a prompt recovery.

To gain a comprehensive understanding of Hepatitis B, this three part panel covers many aspects regarding the timeline of a possible infection. The Hepatitis B Surface Antibody looks for clinical recovery or subsequent natural or vaccinated immunity to Hepatitis B. The Hepatitis B Surface Antigen is the earliest indicator of the presence of acute infection.  The Hepatitis B Core Antibody is used in conjunction with the other Hepatitis B tests to assess the stage of Hepatitis B infection. Turnaround time for the Hepatitis B Panel is typically 1 business day for all three components.

Incubation Period: The incubation period varies per component but ranges between 3-12 weeks. 

Requirements: This hepatitis testing does not have any special requirements.
