The Basic Food Allergy Test Panel is a blood test that checks for allergic antibodies to common foods. It is ordered when a person has symptoms after eating certain foods, such as hives, stomach upset, or breathing trouble, to help identify possible triggers.

  • Specific IgE for egg white — Antibody linked to egg allergy.
  • Specific IgE for milk — Antibody linked to cow's milk allergy.
  • Specific IgE for peanut — Antibody linked to peanut allergy.
  • Specific IgE for wheat — Antibody linked to wheat allergy.
  • Specific IgE for soy — Antibody linked to soy allergy.
  • Total IgE — Overall allergy antibody level; not specific to one food.

Who it is for

A clinician may order this panel for adults or children with suspected food allergies, or to monitor known allergies.

Preparation

No fasting or special preparation is needed. The blood sample can be drawn at any time.

Results and what they mean

Results are reported as levels of specific IgE for each food, often as a number or class. A clinician interprets these alongside your symptoms and history; a positive result alone does not always mean a true allergy. This is general information, not medical advice.

How long does it take to get results?

Typical turnaround is 1–3 business days after the sample reaches the lab.

Can this test tell me if I have a food allergy?

It shows whether your blood has allergic antibodies to certain foods, but only a clinician can diagnose a food allergy using your symptoms and history.

What if my result is positive but I have no symptoms?

A positive result without symptoms may not mean a true allergy. Your clinician will help interpret what it means for you.
