About Horse Dander Allergy Test | IgE Testing in Boston
Horse dander refers to the tiny flakes of skin, hair, and other proteins that horses shed into their environment.
These particles can become airborne and be inhaled, and they may also collect on clothing, furniture, and surfaces, which means exposure is not limited to direct contact with a horse.
An allergy to horse dander occurs when the immune system mistakenly identifies certain horse proteins as harmful and produces IgE antibodies against them. On subsequent exposure, these antibodies trigger the release of histamine and other chemicals, leading to symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, coughing, and in some cases wheezing or skin reactions.
The Horse Dander Allergy Test uses a blood sample to detect the presence of specific IgE antibodies. Results are typically reported as a numerical value or class, which a healthcare professional can interpret alongside a person's medical history and symptoms to assess whether horse dander sensitivity is likely.
