ASCA- IgG:

Why Anti-SacromycesCerevisiaeIgG Antibody test?

CLINICAL INFORMATION :

Anti-SacromycesCerevisiaeIgG Antibody is used in inflammatory bowel diseases, to help distinguish Crohn’s disease from ulcerative colitis. As there is no single test for the diagnosis of Crohn’s disease, apart from clinical signs and symptoms diagnosis is arrived by blood tests (including ASCA Antibody test), stool tests, colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy or tissue biopsies. In the majority antibodies to Sacromycescerevisiae are found in approximately in 75% of patients with Crohn’s disease. Hence high antibody titers increase the likelihood of this disease. ASCA IgG antibody ELISA-test is based on the antibodies directed against mannan present in the cell membrane of S.cerevisiae.
