Service Providers for Anti HBc - IgM
The Anti-HBc IgM test detects IgM antibodies against the hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg). The presence of these antibodies indicates a recent or acute Hepatitis B infection. This test is commonly used to diagnose acute hepatitis B and is helpful in distinguishing acute infection from chronic infection or past exposure. It is performed with a blood sample, and the risks are minimal, usually limited to slight discomfort during the blood draw. Positive results suggest a recent infection, while negative results suggest no current acute infection. Further tests are often needed to assess the stage of infection.
