The IgE allergy test for Rhizopus nigricans aims to assess allergic susceptibility to this fungus. This allergy clinically manifests as allergic rhinitis, allergic bronchitis, recurrent bronchitis, and bronchial asthma and is triggered by allergenic proteins known as Rhiz Illb and Rhiz Vib. Healthcare professionals employ this test to identify sensitization and provide guidance for suitable treatment.
Important note: Minimum volume is 1 mL and 0.5 mL for every additional allergen.
