This type of medical test is used to diagnose whether or not someone has typhoid fever, an infectious disease caused by Salmonella typhi bacteria.<\/p>\n<p>The typhidot test is a simple screening blood test that can be used to detect the presence of antibodies (IgM and IgG) in the body that is created when someone has been infected with the Salmonella typhi bacteria. Usually, the test is positive within 2-3 days of infection. The results typically take anywhere from 1 to 3 hours and if they come back positive, it means that the person has typhoid fever and may need to receive treatment right away.<\/p>\n<p>This test can identify infections even in those who show no symptoms or very mild symptoms so it&#8217;s important to get tested if there is any suspicion at all. Your doctor will be able to provide more information on treatment options based on your results.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9a9d088 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9a9d088\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-950a8b0\" data-id=\"950a8b0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5dca39 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c5dca39\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">When Should I Get Tested with Typhidot Test? <\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-22744ae elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"22744ae\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A Typhidot Test might be necessary if your doctor suspects that you have typhoid fever or if you have recently visited an area where the disease is prevalent.

First, an elastic band or tourniquet is tied around your upper arm to make it easier to collect the blood. You will then be asked to make a tight fist, which will help fill the veins with blood.<\/p><p>Once the vein is located, the lab technician will clean the area with an antiseptic liquid to prevent any bacteria from entering your body. They will then insert a needle into the vein to collect the blood sample into a vacutainer tube. Once the sample is collected, the needle is removed, and the elastic band is released, allowing you to open your fist. The technician will then use a gauze pad or cotton to stop the bleeding.<\/p><p>After the sample is collected, it is placed in a Typhidot test kit and mixed with the chemicals or reagents provided. The kit will show results within 1-3 hours, indicating whether or not typhoid antibodies are present in the blood. It is important to note that the test results should be interpreted by a healthcare professional to ensure accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2cf58bf elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2cf58bf\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-33a1ddc\" data-id=\"33a1ddc\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34e89e5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"34e89e5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What is the Typhidot Test price?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-19230a3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"19230a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In India, the cost of a Typhidot test can fluctuate depending on multiple factors, such as the location of the lab or hospital where it is conducted and the specific type of test being administered.
