HBV is a contagious virus that attacks the liver and can be spread through contact with infected blood and other bodily fluids.¹ Although the HBV vaccine is widely available, many adults remain unvaccinated and therefore unprotected against HBV infection. Labcorp OnDemand’s Hepatitis B Immunity Test can determine your HBV immunity status due to either a prior resolved infection or vaccination.
Note: This test is not intended to be used to diagnose a current active Hep B infection. Those with any symptoms of Hep B infection should contact a health care provider for next steps.
Preparation: No special preparation needed.
These antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to a prior resolved HBV infection or vaccination.
Consider getting tested if you are unsure if you have received your hepatitis B vaccines or you want to find out if you are still immune from a previous vaccination or prior resolved infection.
Consider getting tested if you are unsure if you have received your hepatitis B vaccines or you want to find out if you are still immune from a previous vaccination or prior resolved infection.
If you were immunized earlier in life, your immunity to HBV may have declined over time.³
This test helps determine if you are protected, especially if you are at high risk for exposure to HBV. So, it’s important to be proactive and determine your immunity.
Sample collection is conducted at a Labcorp patient service center near you and processed in the same labs that hospitals and physicians trust and use.
