Order Hazelnut (Filbert) Allergy Test | NutsA hazelnut allergy test measures the amount of specific IgE antibodies in the blood that react to hazelnut proteins.

About Hazelnut (Filbert) Allergy Test | Nuts in Carson City
Hazelnut allergy is an immune response to proteins found in hazelnuts, which are also known as filberts.
When the immune system mistakenly identifies hazelnut proteins as harmful, it produces IgE antibodies directed against them. Those antibodies attach to immune cells, and on later exposure they trigger the release of chemicals such as histamine. This is what produces symptoms that can include itching, hives, swelling, stomach upset, or breathing difficulty.
A blood test for hazelnut-specific IgE measures how much of this antibody is present in a sample. It is one of several tools used to evaluate a suspected nut allergy, alongside a clinical history and, in some cases, skin testing or supervised food challenges. No single test result stands alone, and the meaning of a value depends on the person's symptoms and exposure history.
Hazelnut proteins can appear in foods where they are not obvious, including baked goods, spreads, and some chocolate products. Cross-reactivity is also possible: some people react to hazelnut because of similar proteins in other tree nuts or in certain pollens. A clinician interprets the result with these possibilities in mind.
