These tests must be interpreted with caution and considered alongside the results of other clinical and laboratory investigations. Tests for antibodies have proved useful in diagnosing endemic fungal diseases, such as histoplasmosis and 261CHAPTER 2 coccidioidomycosis, in immunocompetent persons. In these individuals, the interval between exposure and the development of symptoms (2-6 weeks) is usually sufficient for a humoral response to develop. Tests for fungal antibodies are most helpful when paired serum specimens (acute and convalescent) are obtained, so that it can be determined whether titres are rising or falling.
