Understanding Absolute Eosinophil Count

Eosinophils form an integral part of the immune system and help fight off infections. These cells play an important role in inflammatory responses to allergies. A higher-than-normal eosinophil count, also called eosinophilia, may indicate an allergic reaction, a parasitic infection, or a skin disease. Whereas, a lower-than-normal eosinophil count, also called eosinopenia, may indicate excessive stress, overproduction of cortisol hormone, alcohol misuse, or the presence of any other underlying condition.

No special preparation is required for an Absolute Eosinophil Count test; eat or drink as per your daily routine. Test result ranges are approximate and may differ slightly between different labs depending on the methodology and laboratory guidelines. Talk to your doctor about your specific test results. The results will help them determine your medical condition and formulate an overall treatment plan.

What does Absolute Eosinophil Count measure?

An Absolute Eosinophil Count test measures the number of eosinophils in the blood and provides important information about the functioning of the immune system. Eosinophils originate from bone marrow and have a lifespan of 8-18 hours. These cells are involved in fighting certain types of infections and responding to allergic reactions in the body. Other functions of these cells include movement to the inflammation areas, trapping substances, killing cells, and bactericidal and antiparasitic activities. They also help in the treatment of immediate allergic reactions and modulation of inflammatory responses. By measuring the number of eosinophils in the blood, this test provides important information about the functioning of the immune system.
