Compare the best immunity & infection tests available in United Kingdom. 107 tests reviewed.
Single-marker IgG subclass test with a 10-day wait
Breaks total IgG down into its four subclasses from a single blood sample, giving more detail than a total IgG figure alone. Suited to anyone who needs subclass-level detail rather than an overall IgG count.
Cheaper than most comparable immunity tests we track
An at-home swab test for the Mpox (monkeypox) virus, using a self-collected genital swab that you post to the lab, suited to anyone with a possible exposure or symptoms who wants to test without attending a clinic.
Clinic Lyme test, pricier than Better2Know's own home kit
A clinic-based blood test for Lyme disease, a bacterial infection spread by infected ticks. Suited to anyone bitten by a tick, or with a rash or flu-like symptoms after time outdoors.
Bartonella antibody test priced above typical immunity
A single IgG antibody test for Bartonella, the bacteria behind Cat Scratch Fever, indicating past exposure. Often considered alongside Lyme disease testing because the two conditions can overlap and share similar symptoms.
Same single marker as Medichecks' £55 test, priced at £189
Checks for hepatitis B surface antigen, the marker used to indicate current infection. It measures one biomarker despite the Profile name, so it suits situations calling for that specific antigen check rather than a broader panel.
Pricey, but the only Medichecks test measuring viral load
Measures the amount of hepatitis C virus in your blood, known as viral load, to gauge how active an infection is or track response to treatment. Suits people who have already tested positive for hepatitis C rather than those checking for first exposure.
Candida IgG screen, priced above typical, 10-day wait
A blood test measuring IgG antibodies to Candida species, used to look for evidence of past or current systemic Candida infection.
At-home bacterial culture test with 2-day turnaround
A single swab sample is cultured in the lab to identify the bacteria causing an infection. It suits people with a wound, lesion or unusual discharge, particularly if a test for a specific infection has already come back negative.
Single-marker EBV DNA test at a premium price
This blood test detects Epstein-Barr virus DNA to show whether you have a current or recent infection, before antibodies would normally appear. It suits people with symptoms of glandular fever who want an early answer.
Clinic GBS swab; a cheaper home kit is also available
A vaginal swab test for Group B Streptococcus, usually taken in the last weeks of pregnancy to check whether the bacteria is present ahead of birth.
Checks Hepatitis A immunity status, not current infection
A blood test measuring Hepatitis A IgM and IgG antibodies to show whether you have immunity from past infection or vaccination, rather than testing for a current infection.
Checks for possible current Hepatitis A infection
A blood test checking for Hepatitis A, aimed at people who may have been exposed through sexual contact, contaminated food or water, rather than checking vaccination immunity.
