AU/mL Value

Results

Interpretation

< 9.0 AU/mL

Negative

Absence of detectable mumps virus IgG antibodies.  A negative result generally indicates that the patient has not been infected and is susceptible to mumps.  If the subject has no history of mumps, has not been previously vaccinated and exposure to mumps is suspected despite a negative finding, a second sample should be collected and tested no less than one to two weeks later.

≥ 9.0 AU/mL

and

< 11.0 AU/mL

Equivocal

Equivocal samples should be retested.  If the result remains equivocal after repeat testing, a second sample should be collected no less than one to two weeks later.

≥ 11.0 AU/mL

Positive

Presence of detectable mumps virus IgG antibodies.  A positive result generally indicates past exposure to mumps virus or previous vaccination
