Immunoglobulin Antibody Blood Test IgA IgG IgM (Labcorp)
This Immunoglobulin test measures levels of 3 classes of immunoglobulins in the blood. Results will include measurements for Immunoglobulin A (IgA), Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and Immunoglobulin M (IgM). Immunoglobulins, or antibodies, are an important part of the immune system which fight off bacteria, viruses and other foreign organisms. Measuring Immunoglobulin levels can help evaluate a person's immune system.
This test may be ordered when a person is suffering from chronic infections, especially of the lungs or gastrointestinal tract. It can also help to diagnose various conditions resulting in excess or deficiencies in one or more types of antibodies. Abnormal results will typically need to be followed up with further testing.
