Definition

  • The immunodiffusion assay tests for the presence of antibodies to the Histoplasma capsulatum M and H precipitin bands. The M band is present during acute infection, but can also be present during chronic infection and be detectable for months or years after the infection has resolved. The H band is present during chronic or severe acute infections. The M band is usually also present when the H band is detected.[PMID: 17223625]
