Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy offers technologically advanced immunological tests which give the most accurate and reliable diagnoses for Typhoid fever.

Typhi Dot IgM-IgG Test के लिए सामान्यतः उपवास (Fasting) की आवश्यकता नहीं होती, जब तक कि डॉक्टर विशेष रूप से सलाह न दें।
अपनी नियमित दवाइयाँ डॉक्टर के निर्देशानुसार लेते रहें। यदि आपने एंटीबायोटिक दवाएँ शुरू कर दी हैं, तो इसकी जानकारी डॉक्टर या प्रयोगशाला को अवश्य दें, क्योंकि इससे जांच के परिणामों की व्याख्या प्रभावित हो सकती है।
यदि डॉक्टर ने मना न किया हो, तो रक्त का नमूना देने से पहले पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पिएँ।
यदि आपको लगातार बुखार, पेट दर्द, उल्टी, दस्त, कब्ज या हाल ही में टाइफाइड-प्रभावित क्षेत्र की यात्रा का इतिहास है, तो इसकी जानकारी डॉक्टर को अवश्य दें।
यदि आपके पास पहले की Blood Culture, Widal Test, Complete Blood Count (CBC) या Typhi Dot Test की रिपोर्टें हैं, तो उन्हें साथ लेकर आएँ।
यदि डॉक्टर ने अन्य जांचें भी लिखी हैं, तो बेहतर मूल्यांकन के लिए उन्हें इस जांच के साथ कराया जा सकता है।
पंजीकरण की प्रक्रिया पूरी करने के लिए निर्धारित समय से 10–15 मिनट पहले डायग्नोस्टिक सेंटर पहुँचें।
Typhi Dot IgM-IgG Test is a simple, safe, and minimally invasive blood test used to detect IgM and IgG antibodies against Salmonella Typhi, the bacterium responsible for typhoid fever.
A trained phlebotomist cleans the skin over a vein in your arm with an antiseptic solution and collects a small blood sample using a sterile needle.
The blood sample is processed in the laboratory, where advanced immunochromatographic or immunological testing technology is used to detect Typhi-specific IgM and IgG antibodies.
Detection of IgM antibodies generally indicates a recent or active typhoid infection, while IgG antibodies may suggest past infection, previous exposure, or an ongoing immune response.
The test is often performed alongside other investigations such as Blood Culture, Complete Blood Count (CBC), and the Widal Test to support a comprehensive diagnosis of typhoid fever.
The blood collection procedure usually takes 5–10 minutes, requires no anaesthesia, and patients can resume their normal daily activities immediately after sample collection.
The results are analysed by experienced laboratory professionals and reviewed by qualified pathologists to ensure accurate interpretation and reliable reporting.
The test report is generally available within 24 hours.
