What is a ANTI B TITRE, IgM?

The Anti-B Titre, IgM test is a blood test that measures the level of IgM antibodies directed against the B blood group antigen. These antibodies are part of the immune system’s natural response and can be clinically significant in transfusion medicine, pregnancy, and organ transplantation. Doctors order this test to assess antibody strength, evaluate compatibility before transfusions, and monitor conditions where immune reactions against blood group antigens may pose risks to patient safety.
