HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIBODY (ANTI-HBs)

The Hepatitis B Surface Antibody (Anti-HBs) test is used to detect antibodies against the hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen. A positive result means the person is protected against HBV, while a negative result suggests no immunity and the potential need for vaccination. This test is crucial for evaluating immune status, especially in healthcare workers, pregnant women and individuals at risk of HBV exposure.
