Order Hepatitis A, B & C Test PanelThe Hepatitis A, B & C Profile is a blood test that screens for evidence of infection with three distinct hepatitis viruses in a single draw. Rather than relying on symptoms alone, it looks for the specific antibodies and antigens the immune system and the viruses themselves leave behind.
About Hepatitis A, B & C Test Panel in Joliet
Hepatitis A, B, and C are separate viruses that share a target: the liver. They differ in how they spread, how long they last, and how they are managed.
Hepatitis A is typically transmitted through contaminated food or water and causes an acute illness that the body usually clears on its own. Hepatitis B spreads through blood, semen, and other body fluids, and can be either short-term or chronic. Hepatitis C is transmitted mainly through blood and is the most likely of the three to become a long-term infection.
The panel detects these viruses by measuring different markers. For hepatitis A, it looks for IgM and IgG antibodies. For hepatitis B, it checks for surface antigen, surface antibody, and core antibody. For hepatitis C, it looks for antibodies produced in response to the virus. Together, these markers help distinguish past exposure, current infection, and immunity.
Because the three viruses require different clinical approaches, identifying which one is present, or confirming that none are, gives a clearer picture than testing for a single virus alone. Results are typically available within one to three business days, and preparation follows the lab's instructions.
