The Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) test by immunofluorescence (IFA) looks for antibodies that target the body's own cell nuclei. Doctors use it as a first step when symptoms such as joint pain, rashes, mouth ulcers or unexplained fatigue raise the question of an autoimmune condition such as lupus. One blood sample, report within 12 hours, processed at a NABL-accredited laboratory in our network. From 1200. Because rheumatology care is often outside Greater Noida, a home sample means the report can be ready before your appointment. Home collection is available across Greater Noida, including Alpha 1, Beta 2, Gamma 1, Pari Chowk, Knowledge Park 3, Gaur City and Greater Noida West. Any collection charge is shown before you confirm.

What the ANA Test Tells You

At a Glance

Test: Anti Nuclear Antibody (ANA) - IFA. Result: Positive or negative, usually with a titre (such as 1:80, 1:160) and a staining pattern. Price: From 1200. Fasting: Overnight fasting is preferred by the lab. Sample: Blood (serum). Reports: Within 12 hours, digital. Home collection: Available across Greater Noida; any charge is shown at booking. Lab: NABL-accredited. ## What It Detects Antinuclear antibodies are autoantibodies directed against proteins in the nucleus of the body's own cells. They are found in many autoimmune conditions, including systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjögren's syndrome, scleroderma and mixed connective tissue disease. IFA is the standard method. ## Reading the Result The report shows whether the test is positive, the titre (the highest dilution at which antibodies are still seen) and the pattern. A higher titre is more meaningful. A low-titre positive result is common in healthy people, especially women and older adults, and does not by itself mean disease. A negative ANA makes lupus unlikely but does not rule out every autoimmune condition. ANA is a screening test and is followed by more specific antibody tests chosen by your doctor. ## Who Orders It Rheumatologists and physicians order it for persistent joint pain and swelling, skin rashes made worse by sunlight, recurrent mouth ulcers, unexplained fever or fatigue, or abnormal urine or kidney tests. Please do not read a result alone; the answer depends on your symptoms and examination. ## Arrive With the Report Specialist rheumatology care is usually found outside Greater Noida, and a first appointment is a long trip you do not want to repeat. Book a morning home sample a day or two earlier, fasting overnight, so the report is in hand when you go. Students in hostels and PGs can book in the same way. ## What Is Not Included This is the ANA IFA test only. It does not include ENA or anti-dsDNA, an ANA blot profile, ESR or CRP, or any kidney test. Content last reviewed: October 2026

Who Should Get an ANA Test?

  • People with persistent joint pain, swelling or morning stiffness – ANA is often an early test when an autoimmune cause is suspected.
  • People with rashes that worsen in sunlight or recurrent mouth ulcers – These can be features of lupus, and ANA is the usual first screen.
  • Residents of Greater Noida with an upcoming rheumatology appointment – A home sample a day or two ahead means the report is in your hand at the consultation.
  • Students and young adults with long-running tiredness and aches – If common causes have been excluded, your doctor may suggest an ANA.
  • People with abnormal urine or kidney tests – Some autoimmune diseases affect the kidneys. Your doctor will decide if ANA is needed.
  • Anyone with a family history of autoimmune disease and symptoms – Share your history with the doctor, who will advise on testing.

How to Prepare

Fasting: The laboratory prefers overnight fasting (8 to 10 hours; water is fine). Book a morning slot. Sample: One venous blood draw (serum). Medicines: Continue prescribed medicines and tell your doctor about all of them, since some drugs can cause a positive ANA. Before your appointment: book a day or two ahead so the report is ready. Home collection: Available across Greater Noida — Alpha 1 and 2, Beta 1 and 2, Gamma 1 and 2, Delta 1 to 3, Omega 1, Chi 1, Pi 1 and 2, Knowledge Park 1 to 5, Pari Chowk, Jagat Farm, Surajpur, Kasna, Techzone 4, Gaur City and Greater Noida West. Any collection charge is shown at booking. Reports: Digital, within 12 hours of collection.
