What it measures
- Total IgE — A general measure of allergy-related antibody in your blood.
- Specific IgE to dust mites — Antibody that reacts to a common indoor allergen.
- Specific IgE to pet dander — Antibody that reacts to cat or dog proteins.
- Specific IgE to mold spores — Antibody that reacts to indoor or outdoor molds.
- Specific IgE to cockroach — Antibody that reacts to a common urban allergen.
Preparation
No fasting is required. Tell the lab about any allergy or asthma medicines you take, since some can affect results, and follow your clinician's instructions about timing.
Results and what they mean
Results are reported as levels of total and specific IgE, often with a reference range or class for each allergen. A clinician interprets these numbers alongside your symptoms and history, because a positive result alone does not always mean you have an allergy. This is general information, not medical advice.
