The Allergy Pet Panel comprises a group of tests. These tests measure specific immunoglobulin IgE and total IgE antibodies against common pet danders, including cat dander, cow dander, dog dander, and horse dander, using the ImmunoCAP method. This panel helps identify allergic sensitivities to different pets and enables doctors to tailor treatment plans accordingly. It is widely available at an affordable price in Bangalore Rural with Tata 1mg labs.

The Allergy Pet Panel is recommended for individuals who experience allergic symptoms such as nasal congestion, cough, watery eyes, sneezing, itchy eyes, skin rashes, hives, etc., after exposure to pets. The test is particularly beneficial for individuals with a family history of allergies or asthma, as they are more likely to develop sensitivities to pet allergens.

No special preparation is required for the Allergy Pet Panel. However, inform the doctor about any medications (such as antihistamines) being taken, as they might influence the test results.

Understanding Allergy Pet Panel

Pet dander is tiny particles of dead skin and hair shed by pets. They are one of the most common allergens found in households with animals. These allergens are often found in the air, on furniture, or on surfaces where pets spend time. When inhaled or exposed to the skin, pet dander can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. This prompts the immune system to produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies that cause allergic reactions.

The Allergy Pet Panel measures the level of total IgE antibodies (the overall level of allergy-related antibodies in the blood). It also detects specific IgE antibodies against common pet danders. These include the dangers of cats, dogs, cows, and horses. This test helps doctors find out which pet allergens are causing your reactions and how severe the allergy is. It also helps them develop personalized treatment plans. These may include medications, lifestyle changes, or immunotherapy.

This panel is often recommended for individuals who experience allergic symptoms. This may include nasal congestion, cough, watery eyes, sneezing, itchy eyes, skin rashes, hives, etc., after exposure to pets. The test is also helpful for those with a family history of allergies or asthma, as they are more likely to be allergic to pets.

Generally, no special preparation is required for the Allergy Pet Panel. However, inform the doctor about any medications (such as antihistamines) being taken, as they might influence the test results.

A positive test result indicates sensitivity to one or more of the allergens included in the panel. This can be further investigated through more specific allergy testing. Conversely, a negative result indicates no sensitization to the tested allergens. Although it does not eliminate the possibility of allergies to other substances not covered in this panel.

Lab test results can vary based on the test kit used, as different methods and allergen quality can affect the IgE levels. Therefore, these results are intended to be interpreted in conjunction with clinical symptoms.

What does Allergy Pet Panel measure?

Contains 5 tests

The Allergy Pet Panel measures both total and specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies related to allergic reactions from pet dander. This panel targets the most common pet allergens, including cat, dog, cow, and horse dander. This panel uses a reliable and precise method for quantifying the presence of these antibodies. It provides essential information regarding the severity of the allergic response. It also aids in future 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 Cow Dander test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens found in cow dander. These allergens are present in cow’s dead skin scales, saliva, and sweat on their fur, which can become airborne and trigger allergic reactions. Elevated IgE levels in response to cow 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 Horse dander test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens found in horse dander. These allergens are present in horse’s dead skin scales, saliva, and sweat on their fur, which can become airborne and trigger allergic reactions. Elevated IgE levels in response to horse 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 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.
