Why and When is the Anti HBcAb IgM Test Done?
Anti-HBc or HBcAb, stands for Hepatitis B core antibody. Positive or reactive HBcAb indicates a past or current hepatitis B infection which can cause severe liver damage through cirrhosis or liver cancer. The HBcAb test is a reliable tool to determine the presence of hepatitis B infection and differentiate between acute or previous exposure. It stands out, especially when antibodies produced against the surface antigen (HBsAg) are not present in either sample.

How to interpret the Anti HBcAb IgM Test
- An absence of IgM anti-HBc may indicate that a person has neither recently contracted nor previously had the hepatitis B virus. Alternatively, it could point to an individual in the acute phase with little to no defense against HBV (with positive HBsAg, negative anti-HBs) or suggest reactivation of the disease within long-term carriers. Lastly, this marker would be negative for those who have effectively been vaccinated against hepatitis B infection.
- A positive IgM anti-HBc result suggests that the body is beginning to fight off HBV and, if coupled with a negative HBsAg test, signals initiation of the recovery process. However, should there still be detectable levels of active HBsAg present in the individual's system (with positive HBsAg/IgG anti-HBc / negative anti-HBs) then it may indicate they are at the acute phase or chronically infected by this virus.
