TORCH PANEL IgG and IgM Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the TORCH PANEL IgG and IgM Test to screen for and diagnose infections caused by several different pathogens. The test includes the following components:
- Toxoplasma
- Rubella
- Cytomegalovirus
- Herpes Simplex 1+2
The cost of the TORCH PANEL IgG and IgM Test is 590.0 AED.
For the test, we require a sample condition of 5 mL (3 mL min.) serum from 2 SST’s. The sample should be shipped refrigerated or frozen.
Report delivery is available daily by 9 am, and you can expect to receive the report on the same day.
The TORCH PANEL IgG and IgM Test is performed using the CLIA method.
This test is commonly used for abortions and infections and is recommended by gynecologists.
Pre Test Information
No special preparation is required before taking the TORCH PANEL IgG and IgM Test.
Test Details
The TORCH panel IgG and IgM test is a blood test that screens for and diagnoses infections caused by Toxoplasmosis, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes simplex virus. These pathogens can potentially harm the developing fetus in pregnant women.
The test measures the levels of IgG and IgM antibodies in the blood. IgG antibodies are produced later in the infection and provide long-term immunity, while IgM antibodies are produced earlier and indicate a more recent or active infection.
The results of the TORCH PANEL IgG and IgM Test can help healthcare providers diagnose and manage infections in pregnant women and prevent harm to the fetus.
It’s important to note that a positive test result does not necessarily mean there is an active infection or that the fetus is at risk. Further testing and evaluation by a healthcare provider are usually needed to determine the significance of the results and guide appropriate management.

Test Details |
The TORCH panel IgG and IgM test is a blood test that is used to screen for and diagnose infections caused by several different pathogens. TORCH is an acronym that stands for Toxoplasmosis, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes simplex virus. These are common pathogens that can cause infections in pregnant women and can potentially harm the developing fetus. The IgG and IgM antibodies are two types of antibodies that the body produces in response to an infection. IgG antibodies are usually produced later in the course of an infection and can provide long-term immunity, while IgM antibodies are produced earlier and are typically indicative of a more recent or active infection. The TORCH panel IgG and IgM test measures the levels of these antibodies in the blood to determine if a person has been previously exposed to any of these pathogens or if they have a current infection. This information can help healthcare providers diagnose and manage infections in pregnant women and potentially prevent harm to the fetus. It is important to note that a positive test result does not necessarily mean that there is an active infection or that the fetus is at risk. Further testing and evaluation by a healthcare provider are usually needed to determine the significance of the results and guide appropriate management. |
