About Hepatitis A, B & C Test Panel in Madera
Hepatitis A, B, and C are separate viruses that share a target: the liver. They differ in how they spread, how long they persist, and what markers appear in the blood.
Hepatitis A is typically transmitted through contaminated food or water. The body produces IgM antibodies early in infection and IgG antibodies that remain afterward, so the panel can distinguish a current infection from past exposure or vaccination.
Hepatitis B spreads through contact with infected blood or bodily fluids. Testing looks for the surface antigen, which indicates active infection, along with antibodies such as anti-HBs and anti-HBc that reflect immunity or prior exposure.
Hepatitis C is also bloodborne. The initial screen detects antibodies to the virus, and a reactive result is usually followed by a separate test for viral RNA to confirm whether the infection is current.
