Description
The Brucella IgM Antibody test is a specific serological assay that detects immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies against Brucella species. IgM antibodies are typically the first to appear in response to a Brucella infection, making this test particularly useful for identifying recent or acute cases of brucellosis. A positive IgM result suggests an active or very recent infection. However, IgM antibodies can persist for several months after the initial infection, so the test results should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical symptoms and other diagnostic tests. This test is crucial for early diagnosis and prompt treatment of brucellosis, which can significantly improve patient outcomes and prevent complications associated with chronic infection.
