Reference Values

Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) IgG

 

REFERENCE RANGE: < 3.5 mg/dL    

INTERPRETIVE CRITERIA:         

                                     < 3.5 mg/dL    Normal level

                            > or = 3.5  mg/dL    Elevated level

    

The PEG method is both antigen and antibody non-specific

and is based on the property of immune complexes to

precipitate at low concentrations of PEG (2.5-3.5%). The

PEG method will precipitate immune complexes of various

sizes and composition as well as other macromolecules

present in serum. Elevated serum IgG may cause a false

positive increase in the PEG precipitate.
