Introduction

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the most abundant antibody in human serum, playing a crucial role in the immune response. Understanding the normal ranges and implications of serum IgG levels is essential for diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions.

Understanding Serum IgG Levels

IgG antibodies are critical components of the immune system. They are involved in identifying and neutralizing pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. Serum IgG levels are measured through blood tests and provide insight into a person’s immune status.

Normal Range of Serum IgG Levels

The normal range of serum IgG levels can vary based on age, gender, and reference laboratory values. Generally, the standard reference range for serum IgG levels in adults is between 700 to 1600 mg/dL. It is important to consider that these values may differ slightly among laboratories.

• Infants (0-1 year): 250-900 mg/dL
• Children (1-3 years): 500-1000 mg/dL
• Children (4-8 years): 600-1500 mg/dL
• Adults: 700-1600 mg/dL

Factors Affecting Serum IgG Levels

Several factors can influence serum IgG levels, including:

• Age and developmental stage
• Genetic and hereditary factors
• Underlying medical conditions, such as immunodeficiency disorders
• Chronic infections or inflammatory diseases

Diagnostic Implications

Abnormal serum IgG levels can indicate various medical conditions. Elevated IgG levels might suggest chronic infections, autoimmune diseases, or chronic inflammatory conditions. Conversely, low IgG levels may suggest primary or secondary immunodeficiency disorders.
