TPHA Confirmatory Test for Syphilis

⭐ Private • Accurate • Reliable
The TPHA (Treponema Pallidum Hemagglutination Assay) Test is a laboratory blood test used
to detect antibodies against Treponema pallidum, the bacteria that causes syphilis.
It is most commonly used as a confirmatory test after a positive screening test such as VDRL or
RPR.

This test helps determine whether a person has been exposed to syphilis and supports accurate
diagnosis when combined with clinical evaluation.

⭐ Why Choose This Test?
• Used to confirm positive VDRL or RPR results
• Highly specific for syphilis antibodies
• Professional blood collection
• Fast same-day results (within 6 hours)
• Discreet and confidential service
• Suitable for routine screening and follow-up
Because screening tests can sometimes give false positives, TPHA is used to provide more
reliable confirmation.

⭐ What This Test Detects
Treponema pallidum Antibodies
This test detects antibodies produced by your immune system in response to syphilis infection.
• Negative Result: No syphilis antibodies detected
• Positive Result: Antibodies detected, indicating current or past infection
Important:
TPHA may remain positive even after successful treatment. Your doctor may interpret results
together with other tests (such as VDRL/RPR) to determine whether infection is active or past.
Syphilis may cause:
• Painless sores (chancres)
• Skin rashes
• Swollen lymph nodes
• No symptoms (latent stage)
Testing is important because syphilis can progress silently if untreated.

⭐ How to Prepare for the Test
• No fasting required
• No dietary restrictions

• Wear clothing that allows easy access to your arm for blood collection
• If other tests requiring fasting are ordered, follow those instructions
⚠️ Do not stop or change any prescribed medication without medical advice.
