What this test is
This is a blood test that measures specific IgE antibodies, which are proteins the immune system can produce in response to allergens. Elevated levels may suggest sensitivity to mango, but results are interpreted alongside your symptoms and medical history.
What it measures
- Mango-specific IgE — Reflects the amount of antibody in your blood that binds to mango proteins
- Total IgE (if included) — Provides a general measure of allergic antibody levels, though it is not specific to mango
What the test involves
A healthcare professional collects a small blood sample, usually from a vein in your arm, using a standard blood draw. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.
Why it is often ordered
A clinician may order this test when someone reports symptoms such as itching, hives, or swelling after eating mango or touching its skin. It can also be part of a broader evaluation for fruit or food allergies.
Preparation
Preparation is generally minimal, but follow the collection lab's instructions about medications, fasting, or timing. Contact the lab directly if you have questions before your appointment.
