LEPTOSPIRA RAPID TEST (IGG/IGM)

The test detects IgG and IgM antibodies to Leptospira bacteria, which cause leptospirosis--an infection transmitted through contaminated water or contact with infected animals, leading to symptoms ranging from mild flu-like signs to severe complications affecting the liver, kidneys, or lungs. The presence of IgM antibodies indicates a recent or active infection, while IgG antibodies suggest past exposure.
