What it measures
- Total IgE — Overall level of allergy-related antibody in the blood.
- Specific IgE to foods — Antibody response to foods such as milk, egg, peanut, or shellfish.
- Specific IgE to aeroallergens — Antibody response to dust mites, pollens, molds, or pet dander.
- Specific IgE to insect venoms — Antibody response to stings from bees, wasps, or fire ants.
- Specific IgE to latex — Antibody response to natural rubber latex proteins.
Preparation
No fasting is required. Tell the lab about any antihistamines or other medicines you take, because some can affect allergy testing.
Results and what they mean
Results are reported as antibody levels, often grouped as negative, low, moderate, or high. A clinician interprets them alongside your symptoms and history, since a positive result alone does not always mean you have an allergy. This is general information, not medical advice; discuss your results with a qualified clinician.
