The Rubella Qualitative Antibody, IgG test detects the presence of IgG antibodies to the rubella virus to determine immune status. Results are reported as positive or negative, indicating whether immunity is present from prior infection or vaccination.
This test is commonly used for prenatal screening, school or employment requirements, healthcare clearance, and before vaccination. A positive IgG result indicates immunity, while a negative result suggests susceptibility to rubella infection. This test does not assess active infection, which is evaluated using IgM testing when clinically indicated.
