The mononuclear spot test or monospot test, a form of the heterophile antibody test, [1] is a rapid test for infectious mononucleosis due to Epstein–Barr virus (EBV). It is an improvement on the Paul–Bunnell test. [2] The test is specific for heterophile antibodies produced by the human immune system in response to EBV
Heterophile antibodies are IgM antibodies with affinity for sheep and horse red blood cells. They appear during the first week of infectious mononucleosis symptoms, 3–4 weeks after infection and return to undetectable levels 3 to 6 months after infection. Heterophile antibody is a fairly specific but insensitive test for EBV.
Mono is primarily diagnosed based on the symptoms and can be confirmed with blood tests for specific antibodies. [3] Another typical finding is increased blood lymphocytes of which more than 10% are reactive. [3] [9] The monospot test is not recommended for general use due to poor accuracy. [10]
