Poliovirus Types 1 & 3 Antibody Test – Quantitative Immunity Verification
Verify Polio Immunity for School, Travel & Health Requirements
Need to confirm your child's immunity to polio? Our Polio Titer Test for minors under 16 measures neutralizing antibodies to Poliovirus Types 1 and 3, helping determine whether your child is protected against this serious viral disease.
This test is commonly used for school requirements, healthcare compliance, and international travel clearance.
✔ What This Test Measures
This test evaluates quantitative antibody levels for:
- Poliovirus Type 1 antibodies
- Poliovirus Type 3 antibodies
Results include specific antibody values with reference ranges, allowing accurate assessment of immunity status.
✔ Why This Test Is Important
Polio is a highly infectious viral disease that affects the nervous system and can lead to partial or permanent paralysis. While vaccination has greatly reduced cases worldwide, verifying immunity is still important—especially for school compliance or travel.
This test helps:
- Confirm existing immunity to polio
- Determine if additional vaccination is needed
- Provide documentation for schools, employers, or travel requirements
✔ Why Isn't Polio Type 2 Included?
Poliovirus Type 2 has been globally eradicated (last reported case in 1999, officially declared eradicated in 2016). As a result:
- Testing now focuses on Types 1 and 3, the remaining relevant strains
- Global vaccination programs have shifted accordingly
✔ Who Should Take This Test?
- Children under 16 needing school immunization verification
- Students or families with uncertain vaccination records
- Individuals traveling to regions where polio risk still exists
- Healthcare students or workers requiring compliance clearance (Reptrax, Vendormate, etc.)
- Anyone wanting to confirm overall vaccine immunity status
✔ Why Choose This Polio Titer Test?
- ✅ Designed for minors (<16 years old)
- ✅ Quantitative antibody results (not just positive/negative)
- ✅ Accepted for school, travel, and healthcare documentation
- ✅ Helps avoid unnecessary repeat vaccinations

✔ Accurate Results for Documentation
