RPR (rapid plasma reagin) is a screening test for syphilis. It looks for antibodies that are present in the blood of people who have the disease. The test is similar to the venereal disease research laboratory (VDRL) test. Reference from A.D.A.M.
The serologic tests may be negative in the incubation period, in primary syphilis, and in untreated syphilis of many years' duration. A false-positive screening test for syphilis (VDRL or RPR) may be associated with many conditions and is usually reactive at low titers of less than 1:8.
