    This study provides normal ranges for immunoglobulin G (IgG) subclass levels in children aged 0-16 years. Understanding these normal bounds aids in identifying children with abnormal IgG subclass concentrations.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric immunology
    • Clinical chemistry

    Background:

    • Immunoglobulin G (IgG) subclasses are crucial for immune function.
    • Establishing age-specific reference ranges for IgG subclasses in children is essential for accurate diagnosis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To define the normal range, mean, and bounds of serum IgG 1-4 subclass concentrations in children aged 0-16 years.
    • To provide a reference for identifying abnormal IgG subclass levels.

    Main Methods:

    • Serum samples were collected from children aged 0-16 years.
    • Concentrations of IgG 1-4 subclasses were measured.
    • Age-specific ranges and means were calculated.

    Main Results:

    • Serum IgG 1-4 subclass levels increase with age in children.

  • These levels plateau at different ages for each subclass.
  • Normal ranges and mean values were established for the pediatric population.

    • Conclusions:

    • The defined normal ranges for serum IgG subclasses provide a critical tool for pediatricians.
    • Accurate identification of individuals with low or high IgG subclass levels is now possible.
    • This facilitates better diagnosis and management of pediatric immune disorders.
