What is the purpose of Hepatitis B Enevelope Antigen(HBeAg) Blood Tests?

The Hepatitis B Envelope Antigen  (HBEAG) Rapid Test Blood Test is conducted to diagnose Hepatitis B viral infection. The viral protein synthesized by infected liver cells is released into the bloodstream. The Rapid Blood Test gives an idea regarding the amount of active or mutant viral strains present. When the test results are positive, it means the virus is replicating inside the liver. On the other hand, a negative report signifies that the Hepatitis B virus is either absent or not actively replicating. Based on HPEAG Rapid Blood Testing, the patient could be said to be either infectious or less infectious. However, a negative test report does not always mean that the virus is absent. Therefore, for providing an accurate diagnosis, doctors often need to follow up with more additional tests. 

The HBeAg blood test reports could also be used to measure the success of certain drugs being administered to the patient. Therefore, when the e-antigen status changes from positive to negative, it could be said that active replication of the Hepatitis B virus has been successfully put to a stop. Therefore, hepatologists also conduct this test as a follow-up treatment /protocol. However, it is necessary to rule out the presence of a mutant strain. The presence of Hepatitis B e-antibody (HBeAB) in the blood means active viral replication is taking place. 

In this case, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is used to test the viral load.  Liver enzyme tests and e-antigen status are also analyzed for complete and accurate diagnosis. Dense HBeAG within blood indicates a person is positive for Hepatitis B virus.  A number of viral DNA, core antigen presence in the hepatocyte nucleus, and viral DNA Polymerase present in serum are taken as vital indicative factors.  The presence of HPV Surface Antigen (HPsAG) and HPV e antigen (HPeAG) helps further identify patients who would benefit from antiviral treatment.

What to expect during a Hepatitis B Envelope Antigen (hbeag) Blood Test?
