The IgE allergy test for canary bird feathers detects the specific immunoglobulins responsible for bird feather allergy. The allergen present on the waxy coating of the bird feathers causes this IgE-mediated allergy. By identifying the trigger allergen, healthcare professionals can inform individuals about occupational exposure or exposure to pet birds and guide targeted therapy.

Important note: Minimum volume is 1 mL and 0.5 mL for every additional allergen.
