Quick answer

The tetanus and diphtheria IgG immunity test measures antibody levels against both tetanus and diphtheria. These two bacterial infections are serious but preventable through vaccination, and antibody levels can fade over time. The test uses a blood sample to estimate whether protective immunity is present and is interpreted by a qualified healthcare provider.

About this test in Alta Sierra

Tetanus and diphtheria are caused by bacteria that produce harmful toxins. Vaccination against both is commonly given together, and the immune system responds by producing antibodies that target the toxins. IgG antibodies are the type measured in the blood, and their level helps indicate whether protection is likely present.

A single serum sample is collected by a routine blood draw. The laboratory reports separate antibody levels for tetanus and diphtheria, often in international units per milliliter, and compares each with a threshold that is generally considered protective. The combined test shows immunity status for both diseases at once.

Clinicians order this test when vaccination records are missing or unclear, before certain travel, or for occupational requirements. It is a laboratory measure of immunity and does not by itself decide whether a booster is needed. A qualified healthcare provider interprets the result with the person's history.
