6 HBV serological markers
HBsAg
Anti-HBs
Anti-HBc IgM
Anti-HBc
HBeAg
Anti-HBe
T or F: If you are positive in Anti-HBsAg, it means that you
have a current/present or chronic infection
F
HBsAg
This HBV marker indicates recovery or immunity; gained after vaccination
Anti-HBs
HBV marker present in acute infection (<6 months)
Anti-HBc IgM
This HBV marker indicates previous or ongoing infection
Anti-HBc
Best HBV marker during the window period
HBcAg
This marker indicates that the virus is replicating ir is in high levels
HBeAg
This HBV marker indicates indicates lower level of HBV
Anti-HBe
T or F: Herpesviridae is double stranded

Lab. diagnoses for EBV
Hematology and Immunology
In a hematology di erential smear for EBV, we can detect the
presence of
Atypical lymphocytes
nonspecific antibodies; screening test
Heterophile Antibody test
confirmatory test for EBV
EBV Specific Antibody Test
Test wherein:
IgG positive means you’ve had or currently have the infection; IgM positive means the infection has been reactivated.
EBV-VCA IgG/IgM (viral capsid antigen)
EBV test wherein a positive test result is usually associated with past infection.
EBV-EBNA IgG (nuclear antigen)
EBV test wherein a positive test may mean you have an active or reactivated infection
EBV-EA-D IgG (early antigen)
EBV Specific Antibody Test (5)
Anti-VCA
Anti-EA IgG
Anti-EA/D
Anti-EA/R
Anti-EBNA
