Influenza Group A and B Viral Load Quantitative Test
Cost: AED 1050.0
Symptoms and Diagnosis
The Influenza Group A and B Viral Load Quantitative Test is a diagnostic test used to measure the amount of influenza virus present in a patient’s respiratory specimen. It can detect and differentiate between Influenza A and Influenza B viruses. The test is typically performed using a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, which amplifies and quantifies the viral RNA in the patient’s sample.
Components:
- Deep nostrils (nasal swab)
- Nasopharynx (nasopharyngeal swab)
- Nasopharyngeal aspirate
- Throat or bronchial aspirate
Report Delivery:
- 3rd Working Day via Email (36 hours)
- 24 hours via Phone
Method:
Real Time PCR
Test Type:
Viral
Doctor:
Physician
Test Department:
Genetics
Pre Test Information:
Patients are required to sign a Consent document and bring any clinical history of the patient for the Influenza Group A & B Viral Load Quantitative Test.
Test Details:
The Influenza Group A & B Viral Load Quantitative Test is typically performed in a laboratory setting. It is used to diagnose and monitor the progression of influenza infections. The test can also help determine the effectiveness of antiviral treatment and guide infection control measures.
A high viral load indicates a higher level of viral replication and may suggest a more severe infection. On the other hand, a low viral load may indicate a less severe infection or the beginning or end of an infection.
The results of the test are usually available within a few hours to a few days, depending on the specific laboratory’s turnaround time.

The Influenza Group A & B Viral Load Quantitative Test is a diagnostic test used to measure the amount of influenza virus present in a patient’s respiratory specimen. It can detect and differentiate between Influenza A and Influenza B viruses. The test is performed using a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, which amplifies and quantifies the viral RNA in the patient’s sample. The PCR technique allows for accurate and sensitive detection of the virus. The test is typically used to diagnose and monitor the progression of influenza infections. It can also help determine the effectiveness of antiviral treatment and guide infection control measures. A high viral load indicates a higher level of viral replication and may suggest a more severe infection. Conversely, a low viral load may indicate a less severe infection or the beginning or end of an infection.
