Frequently Asked Questions
The ASO test measures antibodies produced in response to streptococcal infection, such as strep throat or scarlet fever. It helps diagnose post-streptococcal complications like rheumatic fever or glomerulonephritis.
It is recommended for individuals with:
- Joint pain, fever, or heart inflammation
- Suspected post-streptococcal diseases
- History of untreated strep infections
A blood sample is analyzed using nephelometry or turbidimetry to quantify ASO antibodies.
- High ASO titers: Suggest a recent streptococcal infection.
- Normal ASO titers: Rule out recent streptococcal infection.
No, it indicates past exposure to Streptococcus, not an active infection.
