The Rubella IgG test is a diagnostic tool that determines whether a person has immunity against the rubella virus (German measles) or not. Body immunity usually develops after getting vaccinated or a person had a previous infection. The rubella virus, also called German measles, is vital to do before pregnancy or during pregnancy because if untreated it can lead to serious issues with the new unborn baby or also to the mother. The price of doing this test is around INR 400 to INR 1,300. The Rubella IgG test gives accurate results and it is cheap, reliable, effective in determining infection and done in quick turnaround time which makes it a reliable choice for patients looking for preventive health monitoring and prenatal testing.
Rubella IgG is an antibody test that checks the quantity of antibodies in the bloodstream of a person. These IgG antibodies show a patient has past exposure to rubella or he/she has done vaccination recently and gives a clear picture of whether the patient's body is immune to this infection or not.
Doctors commonly recommend this test as part of:
| S. No. | Rubella IgG Level (IU/mL)* | Interpretation | Meaning |
| 1 | Less than 5 IU/mL | Negative | No immunity |
| 2 | Between 5 – 9.9 IU/mL | Borderline | Uncertain immunity, repeat the test |
| 3 | Greater than or equal to 10 IU/mL | Positive | Immunity due to past infection or vaccination |
The procedure is simple, safe, and quick. In this test, the first medical health care person collects the blood by injecting a needle into the vein of the arm and collects the small amount of blood in a designated test tube for examining specific IgG antibodies. The reports are collected within the same day or other day depending on the lab and on your slot.
| S. No. | Result | Interpretation |
| 1 | Positive IgG | Immunity present (past infection or vaccination) |
| 2 | Negative IgG | No immunity, vaccination may be recommended |
| 3 | Borderline | Repeat test may be advised |
