Physiological Reference Ranges

The ranges below represent standard adult physiological values. Your laboratory's printed reference range always takes precedence.

Adults (general)

0 – 10 UI/mL

Adult females

0 – 10 UI/mL

Adult males

0 – 10 UI/mL

What does a low result mean?

A level below 10 UI/mL is negative, confirming absence of specific autoimmune anti-DNA reactivity.

What does a high result mean?

A low positive titer can be transient following seasonal viral infections or secondary to specific medications.

Questions ready for your doctor

Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:

  • Could a recent minor viral infection have prompted this transient reading?
  • Is a confirmatory retest in two months recommended?
  • Is this result generally reassuring alongside my other blood tests?
