This test is ideal if you need to verify whether you're protected against Hepatitis B, whether from previous vaccination or past infection. It helps you determine if you need a booster shot, which is especially important for healthcare workers, people with chronic liver disease, or those at higher risk of exposure. Many people use this test to confirm their immunity status before traveling internationally or starting a new job in healthcare.
No special preparation is needed for this test. You don't need to fast or avoid any medications. The test can be done at any time of day, and you can eat and drink normally before your appointment. Just arrive at the lab with your test order and photo ID.
This test measures Hepatitis B Surface Antibody, which indicates whether your immune system has developed protection against the Hepatitis B virus. The presence of this antibody shows that you've either been successfully vaccinated or have recovered from a past infection and are now immune. This single biomarker provides a clear answer about your current immunity status.
What this means
Your test came back positive, meaning protective antibodies against Hepatitis B were detected in your blood. This indicates you're immune to the virus, either from successful vaccination or recovery from a past infection, and you're protected from getting Hepatitis B.
Recommended actions
No immediate action needed - you have immunity to Hepatitis B
Keep a record of this result for occupational or travel requirements
