Test Overview & Methodology
This ELISA-based serum test detects Aspergillus-specific IgG antibodies, aiding in the diagnosis of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), chronic pulmonary aspergillosis, and other mould-sensitisation disorders. Performed in our UAE laboratory under strict ISO 15189 and DHA-licensed protocols, results are available the same day when collected on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday before 9 AM.
| Feature | Our ISO-Certified Aspergillus IgG Test | Standard ELISA at Other Labs |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | Ultra-sensitive ELISA (EIA), lot-validated against WHO reference sera | Generic ELISA, often lacking UAE-specific validation |
| Precision (CV%) | <5% intra-assay, <8% inter-assay | Not always disclosed; variable QC |
| Turnaround Time | Same day (if collected Mon/Wed/Fri before 9 AM) | 48–72 hours typical |
| Pre-analytical Integrity | ISO-certified refrigerated home collection & cold-chain transport | Ambient transport risks IgG degradation |
| Interpretative Support | DHA-licensed specialist tele-consultation included | Raw result only, no clinical correlation |
| Total Cost (AED) | 220 | 180–250 (often hidden logistics fees) |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
Dr. Ajay Singh (DHA Registration: 36234132) — General Practitioner
As a general practitioner, I often encounter patients presenting with chronic cough or recurrent wheeze. Aspergillus IgG serology is a key screening tool for mould-related sensitisation in individuals with underlying asthma or structural lung disease. A positive result should always be interpreted alongside chest imaging and symptom history — our team provides a comprehensive follow-up discussion to guide appropriate referral and treatment planning.
Medication Advisory
Do not discontinue any prescribed antifungal, corticosteroid, or immunosuppressive therapy based solely on this test result without consulting your treating physician.
Patient Safety Exclusion & Emergency Indicators
- Exclusion criteria: Documented severe latex allergy (some collection kits) or inability to maintain venous access for SST collection.
- Red Flag — Seek immediate ER care if you experience: Sudden severe shortness of breath, hemoptysis (coughing up blood), high fever with chills, or sharp chest pain that worsens with breathing, regardless of test status.
- Cold-chain protocol: If self-transporting, sample must be kept refrigerated (2–8 °C) and delivered within 4 hours; never freeze before separation.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does the Aspergillus IgG serum detect?
This ELISA assay measures IgG antibodies specific to Aspergillus fumigatus in serum, revealing past or ongoing sensitisation or chronic infection. It is primarily ordered when allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), aspergilloma, or chronic pulmonary aspergillosis is suspected, helping distinguish active disease from simple colonization.
2. How is the sample collected and does it require preparation?
A qualified phlebotomist collects 2 mL of blood into a serum-separating tube (SST) via standard venipuncture; no fasting or special preparation is required. For at-home collection, our ISO-certified team ensures immediate refrigeration to preserve antibody integrity until analysis.
3. When will I receive my results and what do they mean?
Same-day reporting is guaranteed for samples collected on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday before 9 AM; results include a quantitative index with interpretive cut-offs based on international guidelines. A positive IgG index suggests exposure or chronic infection, but must be correlated with clinical and radiological findings by your physician — our DHA-licensed team will explain the numbers and recommend appropriate follow-up.
