What it measures
- Red top bentgrass specific IgE — The main marker; it measures allergy-related antibodies directed at red top bentgrass pollen.
- Total IgE — Sometimes included to show the overall level of allergy-related antibodies in the blood.
- Other grass pollen IgEs — May be tested together to see whether symptoms are linked to several grasses rather than just red top bentgrass.
Preparation
No fasting is required for this blood test. Tell the clinician about any antihistamines or other medications you take, because some can affect allergy testing.
Results and what they mean
Results are reported as a level of specific IgE, often grouped as negative, low, moderate, or high, along with the laboratory's reference range. A clinician interprets the result together with your symptoms and history; a positive result alone does not confirm an allergy. This is general information, not medical advice.
