Allergy - Dust Panel, ImmunoCAP

The D Farinae test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens from Dermatophagoides farinae mites (a common house dust mite). The test helps evaluate the body's immune response to dust mites, which are often found in home environments. Elevated IgE levels in response to these mites indicate an allergic sensitivity, enabling doctors to diagnose and manage allergic reactions more accurately.

The test is highly precise and reliable method that quantifies IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the house dust allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

The D Pteronsysinus test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens from Dermatophagoides Pternonyssinus mites (a common house dust mite). This test helps evaluate the body's immune response to dust mites, which are often found in home environments. Elevated IgE levels in response to these mites indicate an allergic sensitivity, enabling doctors to diagnose and manage allergic reactions more accurately.

The test is a highly precise and reliable method that measures IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the D Pteronsysinus allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

The Cockroach test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens found in cockroach saliva, feces, and other body parts. These allergens can spread through the air, much like dust mites, and worsen allergy symptoms. Elevated IgE levels in response to these mites indicate an allergic sensitivity, enabling doctors to diagnose and manage allergic reactions more accurately. This test is a highly precise and reliable method that quantifies IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the cockroaches allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

The Total IgE (Immunoglobulin E) test is used to quantify the total level of IgE antibodies in your blood. Immunoglobulins are antibodies (proteins) secreted by plasma cells (immune cells) when the body identifies a dangerous foreign substance like bacteria, viruses, or allergens. There are five basic forms of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgG, IgM, IgD, and IgE. Of these, IgE plays a primary role in allergic reactions to allergens such as pollen, dust, pet dander, mold, latex, some foods (such as eggs, peanuts, or strawberries), or insect stings.

Unlike other antibodies, IgE is primarily associated with immune responses to allergenic substances, such as plant pollen, latex, pet dander, mold, eggs, peanuts, bee venom, and strawberries. Typically, IgE is present in tiny amounts in the blood. When the immune system encounters an allergen, it triggers the production of IgE antibodies. The Total IgE test measures the concentration of these IgE antibodies in the blood, providing insights into the presence and severity of allergies.

The House Dust (Greer Labs) test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to dust particles from Greer Labs. It evaluates the body's immune response to allergens, commonly found in house dust, such as fabric fibers, bacteria, fungi, and human skin cells. Elevated IgE levels in response to Greer Labs dust indicate an allergic sensitivity, helping doctors pinpoint the exact allergen triggering symptoms and tailor appropriate treatment strategies.

This test is a highly precise and reliable method that quantifies IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the house dust allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.
