This tube is for test: Blastomyces dermatitidis Antibodies by Immunoassay with Reflex to Immunodiffusion (BLASAB) and Coccidioides IgG and IgM Antibodies with Reflex to Immunodiffusion (COCIMG). Separate serum from cells ASAP or within 2 hours of collection and transfer into standard aliquot tube. | |
| 1.5 mL | Serum | SST (Gold) | Refrigerated | Multiple specimen tubes must be collected for this panel. This tube is for test: Histoplasma Ab, CF (HISTCF) and Aspergillus fumigatus Antibody IgG (ASPIGG). Separate serum from cells ASAP or within 2 hours of collection and transfer to standard aliquot tube. For Histoplasma Ab, CF (HISTCF) Parallel testing is preferred, and convalescent specimens must be received within 30 days from receipt of the acute specimens.
