  2. Hepatitis C - Wikipedia

    Still, newer methods include an antibody test for the virus' core protein and the detection of the viral genome after first concentrating the viral particles by ultracentrifugation. [44] A form of infection with persistently moderately elevated serum liver enzymes but without antibodies to hepatitis C has also been reported. [45]

  3. Anti-mitochondrial antibody - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-mitochondrial_antibody

    Anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA) are autoantibodies, consisting of immunoglobulins formed against mitochondria, [1] primarily the mitochondria in cells of the liver.. The presence of AMA in the blood or serum of a person may be indicative of the presence of, or the potential to develop, the autoimmune disease primary biliary cholangitis (PBC; previously known as primary biliary cirrhosis).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoimmune_hepatitis

    Autoimmune hepatitis, formerly known as lupoid hepatitis, plasma cell hepatitis, or autoimmune chronic active hepatitis, is a chronic, autoimmune disease of the liver that occurs when the body's immune system attacks liver cells, causing the liver to be inflamed.

    Mar. 14—Hepatitis C is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis C virus. It is becoming a big public health concern in many counties, including Lawrence County, encouraging us to review some ...

  6. Total complement activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_complement_activity

    The test is based on the capacity of an individual's serum to lyse sheep erythrocytes coated with anti-sheep antibodies (preferably rabbit IgG). The individual's serum is diluted until a minimum concentration of 50% of the sheep's red blood cells are lysed. This is recorded as the CH50.

  7. Complement fixation test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complement_fixation_test

    The complement fixation test is an immunological medical test that can be used to detect the presence of either specific antibody or specific antigen in a patient's serum, based on whether complement fixation occurs. It was widely used to diagnose infections, particularly with microbes that are not easily detected by culture methods, and in ...

  8. Anti-SSA/Ro autoantibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-SSA/Ro_autoantibodies

    Immunofluorescence pattern of SS-A and SS-B antibodies. Produced using serum from a patient on HEp-20-10 cells with a FITC conjugate. Anti-SSA autoantibodies (anti–Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen A autoantibodies, also called anti-Ro, or similar names including anti-SSA/Ro, anti-Ro/SSA, anti–SS-A/Ro, and anti-Ro/SS-A) are a type of anti-nuclear autoantibodies that are associated with ...

  9. Seroconversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seroconversion

    If an antibody is already bound to an antigen, that antibody and that antigen cannot bind to the test. Antibody tests therefore cannot detect that specific antibody molecule. Due to this binding, if the amounts of antigen and antibody in the blood are equal, each antibody molecule will be in a complex and be undetectable by standard techniques.
