The Student Health Immunity Titers panel contains 4 tests with 10 biomarkers.
Preparing for college often means ensuring you're vaccinated against various infectious diseases to maintain a healthy campus environment. Our Student Health Immunity Titers Panel is designed specifically for college students to verify their immunity status efficiently and conveniently.
1. Hepatitis B Surface Antibody, Quantitative: This test measures the level of antibodies against the Hepatitis B virus, indicating whether you're protected following vaccination. A sufficient antibody level confirms your immunity, keeping you safe in diverse college settings.
2. MMR (IgG) Panel (Measles, Mumps, Rubella): The MMR panel assesses your immunity against measles, mumps, and rubella through IgG antibodies. Ensuring immunity to these highly contagious diseases is crucial for your health and for public safety on campus.
3. QuantiFERON®-TB Gold Plus, 1 Tube: This test detects latent tuberculosis infection by measuring your immune system's reaction to TB antigens. Given the close-quarters living of college dormitories, screening for TB is a proactive step to prevent potential outbreaks.
4. Varicella-Zoster Virus Antibody (IgG): This test determines if you have immunity to the varicella-zoster virus, which causes chickenpox. If you've been vaccinated or had the disease in the past, this test will confirm your immune status, sparing you from future outbreaks.
Complete your panel before the semester starts to ensure you meet all health requirements and contribute to a healthier campus life.
