This test is used to detect Ig M antibodies. Ig M is usually the first antibody produced by the immune system during an infection. A positive IgM indicates that you may be infected or have been vaccinated recently and that your body has responded to the infection / vaccination. If IgM is detected, it indicates that you may still be infected or have recovered recently from the infection.

How is the blood sample taken?
To take the blood sample, a tourniquet (elastic) band is placed tightly on the upper arm. The patient is then asked to make a fist. This helps in the build-up of blood filling the veins and it becomes easy to collect the blood. The skin is cleaned before inserting the needle in the vein in order to prevent bacteria from entering. Needle is inserted into the vein of the arm and the blood sample is collected in the vacutainer.
