Rubella serology is a blood test that detects antibodies against the rubella virus, which causes German measles. It is commonly used to determine a person's immune status to rubella, especially in pregnant women or those planning to become pregnant, as infection during pregnancy can lead to serious birth defects. The test can identify whether a person has been vaccinated against rubella or has had a past infection. Results typically help guide vaccination decisions and public health measures.
