Anti-Strptolysin 'O' Test (ASO)

The Anti-Streptolysin O (ASO) Test is a blood test that measures the level of antibodies produced by the immune system against the streptolysin O enzyme produced by Group A Streptococcus bacteria. Group A Streptococcus (GAS) bacteria can cause a range of infections, including strep throat, scarlet fever, and rheumatic fever.

The ASO test is primarily used to diagnose and monitor these infections, particularly rheumatic fever, which is a serious condition that can affect the heart, joints, skin, and brain. The ASO test can also be used to assess whether a person has had a recent strep infection, which can help guide treatment decisions.
