Test Details
The ANCA (antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies) IFA test is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of ANCA antibodies in the blood. ANCA antibodies are autoantibodies that target proteins within neutrophils, a type of white blood cell.
The IFA (indirect immunofluorescence assay) test involves incubating patient serum with neutrophils fixed on a slide and then adding a fluorescent-labeled secondary antibody that binds to any ANCA antibodies present. The slide is then examined under a fluorescence microscope, and the pattern and intensity of fluorescence can indicate the presence and type of ANCA antibodies.
This test is commonly used to aid in the diagnosis of certain autoimmune diseases, such as granulomatosis with polyangiitis (formerly known as Wegener’s granulomatosis) and microscopic polyangiitis.
