What is Fluorescent Treponemal Antibody-Absorption (FTA-ABS) Test?

The fluorescent treponemal antibody-absorption test (FTA-ABS) is an indirect fluorescent antibody technique used as a syphilis confirmatory test. FTA-ABS is the first serological test to be positive after infection, which occurs 3-4 weeks after infection.

This is a low-cost confirmatory test performed in public health laboratories. FTA-ABS test results are positive in the majority of patients with primary syphilis and remain positive for life, so the FTA-ABS test for syphilis cannot be used to determine treatment response.

Why it is done?

This test may also be ordered by your doctor if you have syphilis symptoms such as:

1. Chancres are small, round-ish sores on the genitals.
