Order Basic Food Allergy Test PanelFood allergies occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies a harmless food protein as a threat and produces immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against it. This Basic Food Allergy Profile measures IgE reactivity to a defined set of common foods, offering a structured way to assess sensitization when symptoms suggest a possible dietary trigger.
About Basic Food Allergy Test Panel in Castle Rock
The Basic Food Allergy Profile is a blood test that screens for IgE antibodies directed at 15 widely consumed foods.
The panel includes milk, wheat, shrimp, peanuts, egg whites, soy, and walnuts, among other frequently eaten ingredients. Each allergen is tested individually, so results indicate which specific foods, if any, show antibody binding.
IgE antibodies are central to immediate-type allergic reactions, which can involve hives, itching, swelling, respiratory symptoms, or digestive discomfort shortly after eating. Because sensitization does not always produce clinical symptoms, results are interpreted alongside a person's history rather than in isolation.
A blood draw is the only step required from the patient. The sample is analyzed in a laboratory, and a report listing the IgE level for each food is generated. Clinicians use this information to decide whether further evaluation, such as an oral food challenge, is appropriate.
