Widal Test

The Widal test is used to diagnose typhoid fever, caused by Salmonella typhi and Salmonella paratyphi bacteria. The test detects antibodies (agglutinins) against the O (somatic) and H (flagellar) antigens of these bacteria in the blood. A blood sample is drawn and mixed with specific antigens to observe if agglutination (clumping) occurs. No special preparation is required. Risks include mild discomfort during the blood draw. A positive result suggests an active or past infection, but results need to be interpreted with clinical symptoms, as false positives or negatives can occur. Further tests may be needed for confirmation.
