Routine tests used to screen for syphilis include:
• Venereal disease research laboratory (VDRL) test: checks for an antibody that can be produced in people who have syphilis. This test is not highly accurate because the antibody it detects is not produced as a reaction to the syphilis bacteria specifically. It is not very useful for detecting syphilis in very early or advanced stages.
• Rapid plasma reagin (RPR) test: detects syphilis antibodies.
• Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) test: a newer blood test that checks for antibodies to the bacteria that cause syphilis. A positive EIA test should be confirmed with either the VDRL or RPR tests.
As STDs are many, tests for STSs are done based on specific the history of exposure.
