Hepatitis core antibody is an IgM but later turns into an IgG in chronic or recovered. (according to First Aid) What is it during the window? IgM or IgG? -I think it should still be an IgM (acute infection) When exactly does it turn into an IgG? (I'm asking because according to Goljan lecture: people with chronic infection have HBcoreAb but its still an IgM)! Isn't this a rule: (?) In acute inflam: IgM In chronic inflam: IgG Thanks.
