&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #33cccc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Overview&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;The &quot;Acetylcholine Receptor Modulating Antibody, Flow Cytometry Assay, Serum&quot; test is utilized for the following purposes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;Detecting autoimmune myasthenia gravis (MG) in both adults and children.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;Differentiating between autoimmune and congenital MG in adults and children or other acquired forms of neuromuscular junction transmission disorders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;This test is qualitative and should not be used for monitoring purposes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;It is only orderable as part of a profile, such as MGLE / Myasthenia Gravis/Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome Evaluation, Serum or MGMR / Myasthenia Gravis Evaluation with Muscle-Specific Kinase (MuSK) Reflex, Serum.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;The specimen required for this test is serum, preferably collected in red top tubes or serum gel tubes, with a volume of 1 mL.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;Specimens should be rejected if there is gross hemolysis, lipemia, or icterus.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;Serum stability information indicates that refrigeration is preferred, but specimens can also be stored frozen or at ambient temperature.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #33cccc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WHAT IS IT USED FOR?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;Detecting autoimmune myasthenia gravis (MG) in adults and children.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;This test is designed as a qualitative assay and should not be utilized for monitoring purposes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #33cccc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ORDERING GUIDANCE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;Usually, doctors request tests for acetylcholine receptor (AChR) binding, blocking, and modulating antibodies. However, Mayo Clinic Laboratories (MCL) does not use this terminology; rather, these tests are provided as evaluations for myasthenia gravis (MG). In most instances, MGMR / Myasthenia Gravis Evaluation with Muscle-Specific Kinase (MuSK) Reflex, Serum is the preferred test.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #808080;&quot;&gt;Individual testing for AChR-blocking antibodies is no longer available as it does not contribute significantly to the diagnosis and treatment of MG.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
