Order Rubella IgG Titer Test | Immunity & Vaccine TestThe Rubella IgG Titer measures the concentration of immunoglobulin G antibodies directed against the rubella virus. Because IgG antibodies persist after either natural infection or vaccination, this titer serves as a reliable marker of immune status rather than a diagnostic tool for acute infection.
About Rubella IgG Titer Test | Immunity & Vaccine Test in Milpitas
Rubella, also called German measles, is a contagious viral illness that typically produces a mild rash and fever in children and adults.
The primary concern with rubella is its effect on a developing fetus. When a pregnant person contracts the virus, especially during the first trimester, the infection can cause congenital rubella syndrome, which may lead to hearing loss, cataracts, heart defects, and developmental delays.
Rubella IgG antibodies appear after vaccination or natural infection and generally remain detectable for decades. A positive IgG result indicates that the immune system has been primed to recognize the virus, which is the goal of routine childhood vaccination and is often verified before or during pregnancy.
This test does not distinguish between antibodies produced by vaccination and those produced by past infection. It also does not detect IgM antibodies, which rise during acute infection. Results should be interpreted alongside vaccination history and clinical context by a qualified healthcare professional.
