Know more about this test

Typhi Dot IgG & IgM test is done to detect IgG & IgM antibodies against Salmonella typhi, the bacteria that causes typhoid fever. Typhoid mainly spreads through contaminated food and water and manifests in the form of fever, loss of appetite, stomach pain, and diarrhea.
As this test is not quantitative, it only detects the presence or absence of Salmonella typhi. Widal test is advised in case titers of specific antibodies (IgM and IgG ) are required.

FAQs related to Typhidot IgG & IgM

Inform the doctor about the medications you may be taking. No other specific preparations are usually required before this test.
The other tests which are used to diagnose Enteric fever include Blood culture test, Widal test, Stool culture test, and Urine culture test. Among these, blood culture is the most commonly recommended method for diagnosing Enteric fever and is performed during the first week of fever. If in case other test results come inconclusive then bone marrow samples can be used to diagnose any infections.
Avoiding contaminated foods and drinks can help to prevent typhoid fever. Along with that, proper vaccination against typhoid fever can also keep a check on developing any possible case of infection.
The healthcare provider takes a blood sample from the arm. The site from where the blood is to be withdrawn is cleaned with a swab of rubbing alcohol. This is then followed by inserting a small needle which has a tube attached to it for collecting blood. Once the sufficient blood for analysis is withdrawn, the needle is removed. The site is then covered with a gauze pad.
As such there is no risk but in few cases, bruising, bleeding, and infection at the puncture site can be seen. In very few cases, there can be swelling of the vein after the blood is withdrawn.
