The reference value of immunoglobulins (Igs) should be known for a population concerned because it is influenced by many clinical and local conditions. As yet the reference value of the Igs have not been determined in Bangladeshi children. This study determined the reference value of Igs in apparently healthy 261 rural Bangladeshi primary school children (aged 5 to14 years, mean 9.3 years). IgG, IgM and IgA were determined by an auto-analyzer. The mean (standard deviation) value of IgG was 1728 (344) mg/dl. The corresponding values for IgM and IgA were 200 (88) and 163 (63) mg/dl, respectively. The 95% reference value calculation in all subjects showed that the range for IgG was 1103 to 2524, IgM was 92 to 390, and IgA was 72 to 325 mg/dl. These values could be used to evaluate Ig status in children with a variety of clinical conditions. J Epidemiol, 2001 ; 11 : 263-265
