Reference range/Unit	[Serum] Negative: < 7.0 Equivocal: 7.0~10.0 Positive: > 10.0 (U/mL)
Clinical Significance	Beta-2-Glycoprotein 1, apolipoprotein H, is a cofactor in antiphospholipid antibody binding and is the critical antigen in the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome. Beta-2- Glycoprotein 1 antibody is more specific than cardiolipin antibody that may express reactivity in patients with syphilis and other infectious diseases.
