The Epstein Barr Virus EBNA IgG Test checks for long term antibodies to EBV, the virus that can cause mono. It is also called EBNA IgG or EBV nuclear antigen IgG. If your doctor ordered this test, you can book at participating labs on LabFinder and choose a time that works for you.
This test may also be listed as EBNA 1 IgG or Epstein Barr nuclear antigen IgG. It looks for IgG antibodies your immune system makes weeks after an EBV infection. A positive EBNA IgG usually points to a past infection. A negative result suggests you have not had EBV or it is too early for these antibodies to show.
Common reasons: checking if you had EBV in the past, helping sort out mono like symptoms when used with VCA IgM and VCA IgG, clarifying results after a recent illness, or documenting prior exposure for medical records. Your doctor will decide which EBV tests to pair with this one.
Bring your lab order and ID to check in. A technician will clean your arm and draw a small tube of blood. A bandage is placed and you can go about your day. Plan about 15 to 30 minutes for the whole visit.
Yes, this is a quick, routine blood draw and is considered very safe. You might feel a quick pinch, notice a small bruise, or feel a little lightheaded for a moment afterward, but those effects usually fade quickly. Be sure to tell the staff if you take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, or if you have fainted during blood draws before. They will take extra care to keep you comfortable. Tell the team if you recently had a blood transfusion or antibody treatment, since that can affect antibody tests.
No fasting needed: you can usually eat and drink as normal unless you have other fasting labs. Hydrate: water helps with the blood draw. Medications: take them as prescribed unless your doctor says otherwise and bring a list. Records: bring any recent EBV test results if you have them. Always follow any instructions from your doctor or the lab.
