Understanding Allergy Eczema / Urticaria Panel (>5 years) in Bangalore
What is Allergy Eczema / Urticaria Panel (>5 years) in Bangalore?
The Allergy Eczema / Urticaria Panel (>5 years) is a specialized allergy test tailored for adults and children over 5 years to detect allergies that may trigger eczema and urticaria (hives), types of skin conditions that cause itching, redness, and discomfort. It evaluates total IgE (antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens) as well as specific IgE against a wide range of allergens causing eczema, such as food, environmental allergens, house mites, etc., using the ImmunoCAP technique. This panel is widely available with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price in Bangalore.
Doctors may suggest the Allergy Eczema / Urticaria Panel (>5 years) if an individual exhibits symptoms of eczema such as persistent itching, redness, and dry, scaly skin. It is particularly useful for those with a history of eczema or other allergic conditions, as well as for individuals who have not found relief with standard eczema treatments. Allergen detection through this panel will help the doctor guide appropriate management and treatment decisions and prevent severe complications.
No special preparation is required for the Allergy Eczema / Urticaria Panel (>5 years). However, inform the doctor about any medications (such as antihistamines) being taken, as they might influence the test results.
What does Allergy Eczema / Urticaria Panel (>5 years) measure?
Contains 11 testsThe Allergy Eczema / Urticaria Panel (>5 years) measures both total and specific IgE antibodies against a wide range of allergens causing eczema. This test is especially tailored for adults and children above 5 years. This comprehensive panel checks for common allergy triggers like milk, egg white, codfish, peanuts, grasses , dust mites, and pet dander. This panel utilized the ImmunoCAP assay which is a highly accurate and sensitive procedure. It provides quantitative measurement of IgE antibodies and helps accurately diagnose eczema allergies and assess their severity.
Egg White (Anda)
The Egg White (Anda) test measures the level of specific IgE antibodies against egg white (anda) proteins. This test is a highly sensitive and accurate way to detect IgE antibodies, helping to assess the severity of the allergic reaction and guide further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Codfish
The Codfish test measures the level of IgE antibodies directed against proteins found in cod fish. This test is a highly precise and reliable method that quantifies IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the cod fish allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Milk
The Milk test measures the amount of specific antibodies (IgE) in the body that react to proteins found in milk (doodh) such as such as casein and whey. This test is important for diagnosing milk-based allergies and distinguishing them from other conditions like ike lactose intolerance or mild food sensitivities. It helps doctors understand how severe the allergy might be, guiding the next steps in diagnosis and treatment.

Bermuda Grass (Durva / Cynodon grass)
The Bermuda Grass (Durva / Cynodon grass) test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to proteins found in Bermuda grass pollen. These proteins can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, especially during the grass pollen season. Elevated IgE levels suggest an allergy to Bermuda grass, helping doctors diagnose and manage allergic reactions more effectively. This test is a highly accurate and reliable method for quantifying IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Timothy Grass (Phleum Pratense/Ghass)
The Timothy Grass (Phleum Pratense/Ghass) test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies that the immune system produces in response to proteins found in Timothy grass pollen. Timothy Grass produces pollen, released into the air mainly during late spring and early summer, which can cause allergic reactions in certain individuals, especially during peak pollen season. Elevated IgE levels indicate an allergy to Timothy grass, helping doctors diagnose and manage allergic reactions more effectively. This test is a highly accurate and reliable method for quantifying IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Dermatophagoides Pteronyssinus
The Dermatophagoides Pteronyssinus 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 Dermatophagoides Pteronyssinus allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Dermatophagoides Farinae
The Dermatophagoides 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.
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.

Peanut (Moongfali / Arachis hypogaea)
The Peanut (Moongfali / Arachis hypogaea) test measures the level of IgE antibodies in the blood that are directed against peanut proteins. High IgE levels suggest an allergy to peanuts. This test helps doctors understand how severe the allergy is, which can guide treatment and help decide how strictly the person should avoid peanuts in their diet. It helps plan the next steps for diagnosis and treatment.

Cat Dander
The Cat Dander test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens found in cat dander. These allergens are present in cat’s dead skin scales, saliva, and sweat on their fur, which can become airborne and trigger allergic reactions. Elevated IgE levels in response to cat dander indicate an allergic sensitivity, helping doctors diagnose and manage allergic reactions more effectively. This test is a highly accurate and reliable method for quantifying IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Dog Dander
The Dog Dander test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens found in dog dander. These allergens are present in dog’s dead skin scales, saliva, and sweat on their fur, which can become airborne and trigger allergic reactions. Elevated IgE levels in response to dog dander indicate an allergic sensitivity, helping doctors diagnose and manage allergic reactions more effectively. This test is a highly accurate and reliable method for quantifying IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Total IgE
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.
