IgE Allergy, Chilli pepper
IgE Allergy, Chilli pepper test detects serum IgE levels in individuals who are exposed to chilli pepper when consumed as herbal remedy or dietary supplement. Such allergies can be triggered in the form of Type 1 hypersensitivity which can induce symptoms of food allergy in the form of rhinitis, contact allergy and protein contact dermatitis. […]
IgE Allergy, Penicillin V
IgE Penicillin V test detects serum IgE levels in patients sensitized with allergens of pencillium v, a clinically prescribed antibiotic used to treat infections. Oral or parenteral administration of the drug can cause either immediate or delayed mediated allergic reactions presenting with rhinitis, bronchospasm, urticaria, angioedema, anaphylaxis and maculopapular exanthematous skin rashes.
IgE Allergy, Penicillin G
IgE Penicillin G test detects serum IgE levels in patients sensitized with allergens of pencillium G, an antibiotic used to treat infections. They are known to induce Type 1 hypersensitivity reactions which can manifest as immediate reactions characterized by rhinitis, urticaria, angioedema, bronchospasm and anaphylaxis or as delayed urticaria or angioedema. Important note: Minimum volume […]
IgE Allergy, Penicillium notatum
IgE allergy, Penicillium notatum test detects serum IgE levels in patients sensitized with allergens of pencillium notatum, a commonly found heterophilic fungi that grows on bread, fruits and nuts. Allergens are commonly exposed on inhalation of spores leading to Type 1 hypersensitivity reactions commonly presenting as immediate and late asthma or antibiotic sensitivity reactions. Important […]
IgE Allergy, Pecan tree
Pecan trees can release highly allergenic pollen grains that are known to increase incidence of hay fever in sensitized individuals. Type 1 IgE mediated reaction can present as rhinosinusitis, asthma, allergic rhinitis, contact dermatitis, urticaria and rarely anaphylaxis. This test provides details of target IgE antibody and measures immune status of the individual. Important note: […]
IgE Allergy, Pecan nut
Pecan nut (Carya illinoinensis) seeds contain protein allergens such as 2S albumin, 11S legumin and 7S vicilin which can induce Type 1 hypersensitivity reactions. Pecan allergy is known to manifest as oral allergy symptom, urticaria and gastrointestinal reactions. This test measures target IgE antibody present in the patient’s specimen and measures immune status. Important note: Minimum […]
IgE Allergy, Pear
Pear commonly consumed as fresh or canned as slices can induce Type 1 IgE mediated reaction or cross-reactivity. Ingestion of Peel and flesh or contact with pear proteins may manifest as chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, asthma, allergic rhinitis, contact dermatitis, urticaria, pollen food allergy syndrome. This test detects specific IgE antibodies associated with these allergic […]
IgE Allergy, Peanut Test
Peanuts contain allergens belonging to diverse protein families causing Type 1 IgE mediated cross-reactions among different members of the legume families. Peanut allergies usually begin in childhood. It can induce clinical symptoms such as nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting, angioedema or urticaria wheezing and dyspnea. IgE Allergy, Peanut test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing […]
IgE Allergy, Peach Test
Peach allergy can be caused through oral ingestion. Type 1 allergic reactions to peach allergen sensitization may include symptoms of oral allergy syndrome, systemic gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, anaphylaxis and sometimes severe asthma. IgE Allergy, Peach test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum volume is […]
IgE Allergy, Passion Fruit Test
Passion Fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) is a native fruit of Brazil commonly processed to make fruit juice concentrate. Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction to its allergen have reported presenting with generalized urticaria, rhinorrhea, sneezing, oropharyngeal pruritus, dysphagia, dysphonia, cough and ocular itching. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum […]
