Understanding Allergy Component Testing in Mumbai


What is Allergy Component Testing in Mumbai?

An Allergy Component Testing, also called Component Resolved Diagnostics (CRD) is an advanced blood test that helps detect Total immunoglobulin E (IgE) and specific IgE antibodies using the latest nanotechnology. This test helps identify specific proteins within an allergen such as food, dust, pollen, drugs animal dander, etc, leading to allergic reactions. It can detect specific IgE antibodies against nearly 295 allergens, including 158 food allergens, 127 respiratory allergens, and 10 contact allergens. This test provides clearer insights into the allergens responsible for the individual’s symptoms when other traditional allergy tests yield inconclusive or conflicting results. It is widely available at an affordable price in Mumbai.

Your doctor may suggest this test if you have symptoms suggestive of severe or unexplained allergic reactions such as nasal congestion, coughing, watery/ itchy eyes, skin rashes, hives, etc, and elevated total IgE levels. It can also differentiate between cross-reactive allergens and primary allergens in individuals with complex or multiple allergies, facilitating more accurate diagnosis and treatment. Also, before starting allergy immunotherapy (allergy desensitization), doctors may suggest this test to identify specific allergens and formulate a treatment regimen accordingly.

Provide your detailed medical history, including history of previous allergic reactions, family history of allergies, and relevant environmental or occupational exposures to help the doctor co-relate your clinical and laboratory findings. 

What does Allergy Component Testing measure?

An Allergy Component Testing simultaneously measures total IgE and specific IgE (IgE) antibodies against nearly 295 different components of allergens using simple blood tests and provides results for 158 food allergens, 127 respiratory allergens, and 10 contact allergens.

An Allergy Component Testing helps identify the specific allergenic components responsible for allergic symptoms. By pinpointing these specific proteins, doctors can find out the exact cause of triggering allergic reactions and can tailor treatment plans more effectively, leading to improved management of allergies.
