What is the Hepatitis B Profile?
Hepatitis B is a viral infection that primarily targets the liver. It is transmitted through contact with infected blood, semen, or other bodily fluids. The infection can be acute (short term) or chronic (long term), potentially leading to severe complications like liver scarring (cirrhosis) or liver cancer if left untreated. This extensive profile tests for six distinct markers, including antigens and antibodies, to pinpoint your exact stage of infection or level of immunity.
Active Infection Status
Evaluating antigens and IgM is essential for:
- Identifying acute or chronic infections
- Detecting the HB Surface Antigen (HBsAg)
- Checking viral replication (HBeAg)
- Guiding immediate medical care
Immunity & Recovery
This test is highly useful because it:
- Detects Surface Antibodies (HBsAb)
- Confirms past exposure and recovery
- Verifies vaccine effectiveness
- Ensures safe occupational clearance
Disease Progression
The laboratory provides critical data to:
- Assess viral activity and infectivity
- Monitor the e-Antigen to e-Antibody transition
- Help prevent community transmission
- Support comprehensive hepatic evaluations
Component Index
What Is Included in the Hepatitis B Profile?
By analyzing this complete set of six specific viral markers, doctors can accurately determine your exact clinical stage, whether you are highly infectious, recovering, fully immune, or require ongoing treatment for a chronic infection.
Evaluating Physical Symptoms
You should consider this profile if you are actively experiencing signs of an acute liver infection, such as:
- Jaundice (a noticeable yellowing of your skin and the whites of your eyes).
- Sudden, severe nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain.
- Dark urine, pale colored stools, and extreme, persistent fatigue.
Ongoing Medical & Risk Assessment
Doctors frequently recommend this profile for individuals in high risk categories or those needing clearance, including:
- Healthcare workers requiring proof of immunity for occupational health.
- Pregnant women ensuring they cannot transmit the virus to their baby.
- Individuals monitoring an existing chronic Hepatitis B infection or checking vaccine response.

Pathology Reports
How To Read Your Laboratory Results
Your results will detail six different markers. A positive HBsAg indicates a current, active infection. A positive HBsAb (surface antibody) typically means you have successful immunity, either from a past infection that has cleared or from a vaccine. The presence of HBeAg indicates that the virus is actively replicating and you are highly contagious. Because these markers interact in complex ways, the report must always be assessed in conjunction with clinical guidance.
Results Timeline: Your complete viral screening report is typically available within 5 days of your blood draw.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to fast before the test?
No special preparation or fasting is required before this blood test. You can eat and drink normally prior to your appointment.
Will this test show if my vaccine worked?
Yes. The Hepatitis B Surface Antibodies (HBsAb) test specifically measures your immunity levels to verify if your body has generated the necessary protective response from past vaccinations.
How quickly will I get my results?
Your sample is processed efficiently by our laboratory, and your comprehensive 6 marker results will be securely delivered within 5 days.
Is the phlebotomy fee included in the £111.00 price?
No, the £24.00 phlebotomy service fee is separate and covers the professional process of drawing your blood at our clinic, ensuring clear pricing and no hidden costs.
What is the difference between acute and chronic Hepatitis B?
An acute infection is short term; many adults clear the virus from their systems naturally within a few months. If the virus remains in your blood for more than six months, it is considered a chronic infection, which requires ongoing medical management to protect the liver.

Most Searched Online Questions About Hepatitis B
Can Hepatitis B be cured?
While there is currently no absolute cure for chronic Hepatitis B, there are highly effective antiviral medications available that can suppress the virus, prevent liver damage, and allow you to live a normal, healthy life. Acute infections are often cleared naturally by the immune system.
Is there a vaccine for Hepatitis B?
Yes, a highly effective and safe vaccine is available. It is routinely given to infants in the UK and is strongly recommended for adults in high risk professions or those traveling to certain regions.
How is Hepatitis B transmitted?
It is transmitted when blood, semen, or other bodily fluids from a person infected with the virus enter the body of someone who is not infected. This can happen through sexual contact, sharing needles, or from mother to baby during birth.
