Reference Interval:
0.89 IV or less: Negative - No significant level of detectable measles (rubeola) IgG antibody.
0.90-1.09 IV: Equivocal - Repeat testing in 10-14 days may be helpful.
1.10 IV or greater: Positive - IgG antibody to measles (rubeola) detected, which may indicate a current or past exposure/immunization to measles (rubeola). Positive IgG antibody levels in the absence of current clinical symptoms may indicate immunity.

| Interpretive Data: |
