Allergy Indoor Panel

The Aspergillus Fumigatus test checks the levels of specific IgE antibodies against Aspergillus fumigatus. This test helps to see if the immune system is reacting to this common mold, which is important for diagnosing fungal infections like allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), severe allergies with mold sensitivity (SAFS), chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CCPA), and allergic conditions like asthma, rhinitis, and others.

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

The Cladosporium Herbarum test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to proteins found in Cladosporium herbarum, a type of mold commonly found in outdoor environments, such as on decaying organic matter like leaves, grasses, and wood, as well as in indoor environments with moisture. Elevated IgE levels suggest an allergy to Cladosporium herbarum, 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. 

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.

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.

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.

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.

The Penicillium Chrysogenum test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to proteins found in Penicillium Chrysogenum, a type of mold commonly found in moist environments like soil, decaying vegetation, and decaying foods, as well as in indoor spaces, particularly in damp or water-damaged buildings. Elevated IgE levels suggest an allergy to Penicillium notatum, 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. 

The Blatella Germanica (German Cockroach) test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens found in German 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 Hollister-Stier Labs test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to dust particles from Hollister-Stier 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 Hollister-Stier Labs dust indicate an allergic sensitivity, helping doctors pinpoint the exact allergen triggering symptoms and tailor appropriate treatment strategies.

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.
