What this test is

The test is a regional IgE allergy panel that screens for sensitivity to 23 allergens frequently encountered in Nevada and Southern Idaho. It measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood, which can indicate an immune response to substances like pollens, molds, pet dander, and foods. The panel is designed to reflect allergens prevalent in that geographic area.

What it measures

  • Specific IgE for regional pollens — reflects sensitization to grasses, trees, or weeds common in the area
  • Specific IgE for molds — reflects sensitization to mold spores that may be present indoors or outdoors
  • Specific IgE for pet dander — reflects sensitization to proteins from cats, dogs, or other animals
  • Specific IgE for dust mites — reflects sensitization to microscopic insects found in household dust
  • Specific IgE for insect venoms — reflects sensitization to stings from bees, wasps, or other insects
  • Specific IgE for foods — reflects sensitization to certain foods that may be common in the diet

What the test involves

A healthcare professional collects a small blood sample, typically from a vein in your arm. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.

Why it is often ordered

A clinician may order this test to help identify triggers for allergy symptoms such as sneezing, congestion, or itchy eyes. It is often used when symptoms suggest an allergic cause and the patient lives in or visits the Nevada and Southern Idaho region.

Preparation

No special preparation is usually required, but follow the collection lab's instructions. They will tell you if any medications or fasting are needed before your blood draw.

How results are reported

Results are reported as a level of specific IgE for each allergen, often categorized as negative, low, moderate, or high. Reference ranges and reporting methods vary by laboratory, so your clinician will interpret the results in the context of your symptoms and history.

Before you go
