What it measures
- MDI-specific IgE — Antibody that may indicate allergic sensitization to MDI.
- Total IgE — Overall allergy antibody level, sometimes used for context.
- Other isocyanate IgEs — Related isocyanates such as TDI or HDI may be checked together.
- Inhalant allergen panel — Common airborne allergens may be tested to rule out other causes.
Preparation

Results and what they mean
Results are reported as negative or positive, often with a numeric level for MDI-specific IgE. A positive result suggests sensitization but does not by itself mean you have an allergy or predict how severe symptoms will be. A clinician interprets the results alongside your symptoms and exposure history. This is general information, not medical advice.

Can this test tell me if my workplace caused my symptoms?
