The gelatin-specific IgE allergy test gauges sensitivity and allergic responses triggered by gelatin ingestion in food or vaccines. Individuals with IgE to alpha-gal may experience delayed reactions to gelatin-containing foods like marshmallows or jelly babies. Healthcare professionals employ this test to assess sensitization and allergic status in individuals, guiding the implementation of immunotherapy.
Important note: Minimum volume is 1 mL and 0.5 mL for every additional allergen.
