a reflection of the quantity of circulating antibodies (immunoglobulins) to a given antigen (in this case, an organism)
a test taken to see if your pet has an immunity to the tested disease
a test which measures the presence and amount of antibodies in blood against a particular type of tissue, cell, or substance
Titer is the concentration of a substance or the strength of such a substance.
Measure of the amount of virus, or antibody, present in a given amount of fluid (such as blood).
A measurement of the amount of antibodies in the blood. The test to measure antibodies is usually performed by making a number of dilutions of the blood and then measuring at what dilution there is sufficient antibody to react in the test. For example, a titer of 1:8 (one to eight) means the blood can be diluted to one part blood and seven parts saline and still produce a positive reaction in the test. The higher the titer (1:16 is higher than 1:8), the more antibody is present. (NOTE: The word 'titer' may also be used when discussing the amount of antigen present, e.g., a high titer vaccine has a large number of virus particles.)
The concentration of a substance in a solution, or the strength of such a substance detected by titration. In the current context, the term is most likely to refer to antibody titer, which is a measure of the concentration of specific antibodies to selected microbes that are circulating in an individual's bloodstream.
The quantity of a substance or its maximal dilution that produces a measurable reaction with another specific substance. Antibody levels (titers) are measured to determine whether they are falling or rising.
a standard measure of the strength or concentration of a component per volume of a solution.
The quantity of a substance required to produce a reaction with a given volume of another substance, or the amount of one substance required to correspond with a given amount of another substance.
The quantity of a substance required to produce a reaction with a given volume of another substance. Or the detection of antibodies in blood through a laboratory test.
The numeric count of serum antibodies as measured by the Assay for Binding Antibody to Acetylcholine Receptor.
A laboratory measurement of the amount--or concentration--of a given compound in solution.
In immunochemistry, titer is the maximum dilution of an antibody that can still produce an antigen/antibody reaction. Conversely it is the maximum dilution of antigen required to produce an antigen/antibody reaction with a standardized antibody. For example, to say that one has an antitetanus titer of 1:256 means that the personĂ¢â‚¬(tm)s serum, when diluted 1:256 in saline, will react in a test system with tetanus toxin.
A measure of the strength of an antibody response e.g. the reciprocal of the last dilution of an antiserum capable of producing a specific effect (neutralizing antibody titer,etc.).
A titer (or titre) is the unit in which the analytical detection of many substances is expressed. It is the result of a titration. Generally, the test is performed on an undiluted sample, and then repeated when the sample is mixed with 100% water, saline, or other diluent in repeated steps (a serial dilution).
