The HLA-B27 Detection Test by Flow Cytometry is a specialized blood test used to determine the presence of the Human Leukocyte Antigen B27 protein on the surface of white blood cells (lymphocytes).
The HLA system plays a crucial role in the immune response. While most HLA proteins help the immune system identify and destroy foreign threats,
the presence of the HLA-B27 antigen is strongly associated with an increased genetic risk for developing a group of inflammatory autoimmune disorders known as spondyloarthropathies (SpA).
Flow Cytometry is a rapid, highly accurate, and sensitive method for detecting this specific protein on the cell surface.
At Augmentum Diagnostics, an NABL-Accredited Lab in Delhi, including our location near Dwarka, we perform HLA-B27 testing using advanced flow cytometry technology for reliable diagnosis.
