Order Pig Allergy Test | Allergic To Swine/PigsA pig allergy test measures the immune system's response to proteins found in swine tissue.

About Pig Allergy Test | Allergic To Swine/Pigs in Kankakee
The test detects IgE antibodies specific to swine epithelium, the tissue and skin cells of pigs.
IgE is the class of antibody most closely associated with immediate allergic reactions. When a sensitized person encounters an allergen, IgE bound to immune cells triggers the release of histamine and other mediators, producing symptoms such as sneezing, wheezing, itching, or hives.
A blood sample is analyzed for IgE that binds specifically to swine epithelium. The result is reported as a quantitative level, which indicates whether sensitization is present and roughly how strong the antibody response is.
Sensitization on a blood test does not by itself prove that symptoms are caused by pigs. Results are interpreted alongside the person's history and, in some cases, other testing. A negative result can help rule out swine epithelium as a trigger, while a positive result supports further evaluation.
