The Epidermal Pemphigus Antibody IFA (Indirect Fluorescent Antibody) Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure used to detect antibodies associated with pemphigus, an autoimmune disorder characterized by the formation of blisters on the skin and mucous membranes. This test plays a critical role in diagnosing the condition, helping healthcare providers to distinguish pemphigus from other blistering skin diseases. The process involves taking a small sample of the patient’s blood and using fluorescent labeling techniques to identify the presence of specific autoantibodies that target the skin’s epidermis.

At DNA Labs UAE, the Epidermal Pemphigus Antibody IFA Test is available for 470 AED. The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and employs advanced testing methodologies to ensure accurate and reliable results. Patients seeking this test at DNA Labs UAE can expect professional service and timely results, aiding in the prompt diagnosis and management of pemphigus.

Test Details

The EPIDERMAL (PEMPHIGUS) ANTIBODY IFA test is a diagnostic test used to detect antibodies in the blood that are associated with pemphigus, a group of autoimmune blistering disorders that affect the skin and mucous membranes.

The test involves collecting a blood sample from the patient and then performing an indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) on the sample. In this assay, the patient’s serum is exposed to a substrate that contains monkey esophagus or human skin tissue. If the patient has antibodies against the epidermal antigens, they will bind to the substrate.

After washing away any unbound antibodies, a fluorescently labeled secondary antibody is added. This secondary antibody will bind to any antibodies that have bound to the substrate.

The sample is then examined under a fluorescence microscope. If the patient has pemphigus, a characteristic pattern of fluorescence will be observed, indicating the presence of epidermal antibodies.

The EPIDERMAL (PEMPHIGUS) ANTIBODY IFA test is a valuable tool in diagnosing pemphigus and differentiating it from other blistering disorders. It can also be used to monitor disease activity and response to treatment.
