Among them, hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) is a common aliphatic isocyanate that can act as a respiratory and contact sensitizer. The HDI allergy test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood to help identify sensitization to this chemical.
About Hexamethylene Diisocyanate (HDI) Allergy Test | Chemical in Downey
The HDI allergy test is an in vitro blood test that detects immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies directed against hexamethylene diisocyanate.
IgE is the antibody class most closely associated with immediate-type allergic reactions. When a person becomes sensitized to HDI, their immune system may produce IgE that binds to the chemical or its protein conjugates.
The test uses a blood sample and is performed in a laboratory. It does not require skin pricking or direct exposure to the allergen during testing, which reduces the risk of triggering a reaction in a sensitized individual.
Results are reported as quantitative or semi-quantitative values for HDI-specific IgE. Elevated levels may support a diagnosis of isocyanate sensitization when interpreted alongside a person's exposure history and clinical symptoms.
