Results are given in micrograms per liter (mcg/L). Normal ranges for lymphocytes are 1,000 to 4,800 mcg/L. The normal value for heterophile antibodies is zero. If you have high levels of lymphocytes and heterophile antibodies are found, it means that you may have mononucleosis.
What WBC is elevated in mono?
White blood cell count Findings consistent with infectious mononucleosis include a differential that demonstrates greater than 50% lymphocytes, an absolute lymphocyte count greater than 4500, or an elevated lymphocyte count with greater than 10% atypical lymphocytes.
Can CBC detect mononucleosis?
The test is used to detect proteins in the blood called heterophileheterophileHeterophile antibodies are antibodies induced by external antigens (heterophile antigens). Some cross-react with self-antigens. For example, in rheumatic fever, antibodies against group A streptococcal cell walls can also react with (and thus damage) human heart tissues. These are considered heterophile antibodies.https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Heterophile_antibodyHeterophile antibody - Wikipedia antibodies that are produced by the immune system in response to an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, the most common cause of mono. A mono test is frequently ordered along with a complete blood count (CBC).
Are liver enzymes elevated with mono?
Most (ie, 80-100%) of patients with acute infectious mononucleosis have elevated liver enzymes, even though jaundice is not usually present. Alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and bilirubin levels peak 5-14 days after onset, and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) levels peak at 1-3 weeks after onset.
What is considered high monocyte count?
Monocytosis or a monocyte count higher than 800/µL in adults indicates that the body is fighting an infection. Monocytosis or a monocyte count higher than 800/µL in adults indicates that the body is fighting an infection.
