Brucella Antibody IgM

Brucella Antibody IgM

**Brucella antibodies IgM** refers to immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies produced in response to an infection with Brucella bacteria. Brucella species cause brucellosis, a bacterial infection that can affect humans and is transmitted from animals such as cattle, goats, and dogs. **Key Points:** - **Purpose:** The presence of Brucella IgM antibodies in the blood typically indicates a recent or acute infection with Brucella. IgM antibodies are the first type of antibodies produced by the immune system in response to an infection and usually appear within the initial stages of the disease. - **Clinical Use:** The Brucella IgM test helps diagnose brucellosis and identify recent infections. It is often used in conjunction with Brucella IgG tests, which indicate past or chronic infections. - **Interpretation:** Elevated levels of Brucella IgM suggest an ongoing or recent Brucella infection. Results should be correlated with clinical symptoms and other diagnostic tests to confirm the diagnosis and guide appropriate treatment. Testing for Brucella IgM is crucial for the early diagnosis and management of brucellosis, allowing for timely intervention and treatment.
