Test Report
E.S.R. 45 mm/hr 0 - 15
Comment
In anaemic conditions Mentzer index is used to differentiate Iron Deficiency Anaemia from Beta- Thalassemia
trait. If Mentzer Index value is >13, there is probability of Iron Deficiency Anaemia. A value <13 indicates likelihood
of Beta- Thalassemia trait and Hb HPLC is advised to rule out the Thalassemia trait.
Note
1. As per the recommendation of International council for Standardization in Hematology, the differential
leucocyte counts are additionally being reported as absolute numbers of each cell in per unit volume of
blood
2. Test conducted on EDTA whole blood

Test Report
Note: 1. In the gametogony stage, P.falciparum may not be secreted. Such carriers may show falsely
negative result
2. This test is used to indicate therapeutic response. Positive test results 5-10 days post treatment
indicate the possibility of a resistant strain of malaria
3. Test conducted on EDTA whole blood
Comments
Malaria is a protozoan parasitic infection, prevalent in the Tropical & Subtropical areas of the world. Four
species of plasmodium parasites are responsible for malarial infections in humans viz. P.falciparum, P.vivax,
P.ovale & P.malariae. Falciparum infections are associated with Cerebral malaria and drug resistance
whereas vivax infection is associated with high rate of infectivity and relapse. Differentiation between
P.falciparum and P.vivax is of utmost importance for better patient management and speedy recovery.

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.
