Microfilaria Antibody - Book Test at Low Cost

What is the Microfilaria Antibody Test? 

This test identifies microfilariae, a filarial larva seen in infected mosquitoes. Microfilariae affect the lymphatic system's function, known as lymphatic filariasis. These substances circulate in the body at night, so a blood sample should be taken at that time. This test determines whether the blood contains high amounts of ant filarial IgG4 antibodies.

Acute infection symptoms include severely enlarged limbs, pitting of the skin, and occasionally enlargement of the genitals.

Untreated filariasis can cause chyluria, hydrocele, lymphedema, and elephantiasis.

Why done? 

When filaria symptoms such as fever, chills, headaches, inflammation, swelling of the lymph nodes, and increasing enlargement of the legs and genitals to unnatural proportions emerge, seek medical attention immediately.

If a mosquito has bitten a person and it is thought that they have contracted the parasite, a test for the presence of the parasite should be performed.

Procedure

You'll have blood extracted from an arm vein. 

How does one prepare for the test?
