Borrelia Burgdorferi IgM Antibod in Pune

Borrelia burgdorferi IgM antibody is a type of blood test used to detect the presence of antibodies against Borrelia burgdorferi, a bacterium that causes Lyme disease. The presence of IgM antibodies in the blood indicates an acute or recent infection. The test is performed by drawing a blood sample from the patient, which is then analyzed in the laboratory using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or immunofluorescence assay (IFA) to detect the presence of IgM antibodies against the bacterium.
