What it measures
- Specific IgE to scallop — The main marker; it measures antibodies your immune system may make against scallop proteins.
- Total IgE — A general allergy antibody level; sometimes included to help interpret the specific result.
- Cross-reactive shellfish markers — Proteins shared with shrimp, crab, or lobster may be checked because reactions can overlap.
- Tropomyosin — A common shellfish protein that often causes allergic reactions.
Preparation
No fasting or special preparation is needed. Tell your clinician about any medications you take, especially antihistamines, as they may affect some allergy tests.
Results and what they mean

A positive result does not always mean you are allergic, and a negative result does not rule out allergy. A clinician interprets the results with your symptoms and history.
