SEROLOGY

When people are exposed to virus or bacteria their body’s immune system generates particular antibodies against the organism. Antibody levels help physicians decide if an infection appeared recently or some time ago. Viral infections, bacterial infections and others can be diagnosed with the help of serological studies.

We have the capability to test for blood-borne pathogens and examine blood specimens for vaccine preventable diseases, mosquito-borne diseases and diseases transmitted from animals to humans. Quality control with perfect results is the central goal. Towards this, the department employs the latest technologies that hugely increase the accuracy of the tests and diminish the chances of human error. The advanced methods in use produce a high level of sensitivity and accuracy while yielding great quality results.
