  • A positive result means that you have the correct number of antibodies in your system for the tested immunization.
  • A negative result means that you do not have the correct number of antibodies in your system.
• Quantitative test: a test that shows numerical values.
• Reference range: acts as a key to determine what the values of your quantitative titer/serologic test results mean.
