Aspergillosis Precipitin - Aspergillosis Precipitin


Results and Values

What do the test results mean?

Normally, no aspergillus antibodies are found in the bloodstream.

If aspergillus antibodies are present, a person may have aspergillosis.

  • Strong antibodies indicate aspergillosis. This infection may involve the mucous membranes, the lungs and the skin.
  • Weak antibodies may indicate an early fungal infection or a condition called hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is a lung disease caused by a sensitivity to inhaled dust particles, such as those associated with hobbies or occupations that involve dust exposure.
