IgE Allergy, Parsley Test
Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) is commonly used in preparing salads and food dishes. Allergic reactions to parsley are rare and can happen on ingestion. Symptoms of rhinoconjunctivitis, allergic rhinitis, urticaria, angioedema, contact dermatitis and anaphylaxis have been described after eating or skin contact with parsley. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. […]
IgE Allergy, Parrot Feathers Test
Allergenic proteins are known to be present in the parrot’s feather bloom, are associated with allergic reactions triggered by frequent exposure to avian aeroantigens, including proteins, present on the feathers. This can lead to hypersensitivity, pneumonitis, rhinoconjunctivitis, allergic rhinitis, bird-egg syndrome and asthma. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. […]
IgE Allergy, Parietaria judaica Test
Parietaria judaica, (asthma weed) triggers frequent allergic reactions. Inhalation of its pollens induces Type 1 hypersensitivity reactions. Sensitized individuals may experience IgE-mediated reactions from the fruit pulp components, like papain or chymopapain, leading to symptoms of food allergy, atopic dermatitis, or angioedema. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. Important […]
IgE Allergy, Paprika Test
Paprika (Capsicum annuum) is used as a food additive and exposure to paprika is known to induce Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction on exposure. Sensitized individuals commonly develop food allergy, food dependent exercise induced anaphylaxis, rhinitis and allergic contact dermatitis. IgE Allergy, Paprika test detects specific IgE antibodies causing such allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum volume is […]
Gold (serum) or Green (plasma) or EDTA plasma
Paper wasp an insect, which may cause type 1 hypersensitivity reaction from stings. It can cause local reaction showing erythema, oedema, and pain at the sting site or systemic manifestations and anaphylactic responses. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum volume is 1 mL and 0.5 mL for every […]
IgE Allergy, Papaya Test
Papaya (Carica papaya) are commonly used in making drinks, salads and sweets. Fruit pulp and papaya extracted components such as papain or chymopapain can induce IgE-mediated reactions causing symptoms of food allergy, atopic dermatitis or urticaria or angioedema in sensitized individuals. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum […]
IgE Allergy, Oyster Test
Oyster (Ostrea edulis) is a bivalve mollusk that can induce type 1 hypersensitivity reaction on exposure to food and occupational allergen. Oyster shell dust can act as inhalant allergen causing occupational asthma. Smoked oyster ingestion can lead to exercise induced anaphylaxis. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum […]
IgE Allergy, Ox eye daisy Test
Ox eye daisy (Chrysanthemum leucanthemum) is a short-lived rhizomatous perennial plant, is rarely known to induce Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction on exposure. Sensitized individuals commonly develop allergic contact dermatitis associated with photosensitivity. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in allergic diseases, helping in the identification of triggering allergens causing allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum […]
IgE Allergy, Ovalbumin Test
Egg proteins such as ovalbumin are known to induce Type 1 immunological hypersensitivity causing allergic syndromes such as atopic dermatitis, eosinophilic esophagitis, IgE-mediated food allergy, called as type I food allergy, rapid-onset of urticaria or angioedema, Atopic dermatitis and Gastroenteropathies. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum volume […]
IgE Allergy, Oregano Test
Oregano is a perennial grown plant known to induce Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction on exposure through ingestion. Sensitized individuals can develop rhino conjunctivitis, asthma, dysphagia, dysphonia and contact dermatitis. Severe allergies or anaphylaxis are rarely seen. This test detects specific IgE antibodies involved in causing such allergic reactions. Important note: Minimum volume is 1 mL and […]
