The Trichoderma viride allergy test is a blood test that checks for an allergic response to Trichoderma viride, a common mold found in soil, damp buildings, and decaying plant matter. It is usually ordered when a person has ongoing allergy or asthma symptoms that may be triggered by mold exposure.

What it measures

  • Specific IgE to Trichoderma viride — Measures the amount of allergy-related antibody your immune system makes against this mold.
  • Total IgE — Sometimes measured to give a general sense of your overall allergic tendency.
  • Other mold-specific IgE — May be checked at the same time to see if other molds also trigger a response.

Who it is for

This test is typically ordered by allergists, immunologists, or primary care clinicians for people with persistent sneezing, runny nose, coughing, wheezing, or asthma symptoms that may worsen in damp or moldy environments.

Preparation

No fasting or special preparation is needed. Tell your clinician about any medications you take, because some drugs can affect allergy test results.

Results and what they mean

Results are usually reported as a numerical level or a class score for specific IgE. A higher level suggests sensitization to Trichoderma viride, but only a clinician can interpret it alongside your symptoms and history. This is general information, not medical advice.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to fast before this test?

No. Fasting is not required for a mold allergy blood test.

How long does it take to get results?

Most results are available within 1 to 3 business days.

Does a positive result mean I am allergic?

A positive result means your immune system has been sensitized to the mold. It does not always mean you have symptoms, so your clinician will consider your history.

Can this test tell me if my home has mold?

No. It only checks your body's immune response. Home mold testing is a separate process.
