Why Is Interferon-gamma Key In IGRA Tests? | Tuberculosis Disease Guide News
Why Is Interferon-gamma Key In IGRA Tests? In this informative video, we will explain the role of interferon-gamma in Interferon-Gamma Release Assays, also known as IGRA tests. Understanding how these tests work is important for anyone interested in tuberculosis (TB) detection. We will discuss the significance of interferon-gamma as an immune signaling molecule and how it is measured to identify the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium responsible for TB. Our video will cover the process of how IGRA tests operate, including the exposure of blood samples to TB-specific antigens and the subsequent immune response. We'll highlight the advantages of IGRA tests over traditional tuberculin skin tests, particularly in terms of specificity and accuracy. Knowing how these tests differentiate between TB infection and responses from vaccinations or other infections is essential for proper diagnosis and treatment.
