  • Cashew IgE — reflects immune sensitivity to cashew proteins
  • Coconut IgE — reflects immune sensitivity to coconut proteins
  • Hazelnut IgE — reflects immune sensitivity to hazelnut proteins
  • Pecan IgE — reflects immune sensitivity to pecan proteins
  • Peanut IgE — reflects immune sensitivity to peanut proteins
