About Hepatitis B Surface Antibody, Quantitative in Philadelphia
This test quantifies the level of antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen, providing a numerical value rather than a simple positive or negative result.
The hepatitis B surface antibody, or anti-HBs, is produced by the immune system in response to the hepatitis B surface antigen. Its presence generally indicates immunity, whether from completed vaccination or from recovery after a past infection.
A quantitative result reports the antibody concentration in milli-international units per milliliter (mIU/mL). This numerical value allows clinicians to evaluate the strength of the immune response and to determine whether a protective level has been achieved.
The test involves a standard blood draw. Results are typically available within one to three business days. Preparation instructions, if any, should be followed as provided by the laboratory.
