What amount of blood do they need to take for a mono spot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tiny amount: Monospot tests are frequently performed in offices as a rapid screening tool to detect antibodies to the EBV virus. A small amount of blood is obtained from a fingerstick and used immediately for testing.
