Test Report
Interpretation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| RESULT | REMARKS |
|--------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Reactive | Indicates presence of IgM & IgG antibodies against Salmonella spp. |
|--------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Non-Reactive | Indicates absence of IgM & IgG antibodies against Salmonella spp. |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note:
1.Titres ≥1:80 of “O” antigen & ≥1:160 of “H” antigen for Salmonella typhi and titres ≥1:80 of “H” antigen for
Salmonella paratyphi A & B are significant.
2. Rising titres in paired samples taken 7-10 days apart are more significant than a single test.
3. Reactive results indicates ongoing or recent infection by Salmonella spp. and the diagnosis should be
confirmed by gold standard test such as Blood culture prior to start of antibiotics.
4. The reactivity will vary with stage of the disease with appearance in 1st week to increase in titres till end
of 4th week post which it starts decreasing.
5. In TAB vaccinated patients, high titres of H antibody of ≥1:160 to each of Salmonellae is observed. They
tend to persist for many months and even years while O antibody shows lower titres and disappears
within 6 months.
6. Antibiotic treatment during 1st week before the appearance of antibodies tend to supress the immune
response in the form of no or decreasing antibody levels.
7. False positive results/anamnestic response may be seen in patients with past enteric infection during
unrelated fevers like Malaria, Influenzae etc. in the form of transient rise in H antibody in Widal test.
8. False negative results may be due to processing of sample collected early in the course of disease (1st
week) and immunosuppression.
9. Test conducted on serum.
