About Mackerel Allergy Test | Fish Allergies in Livermore
Mackerel belongs to the scombroid family of fish, a group that also includes tuna and bonito.
Allergic reactions to fish are driven by proteins such as parvalbumin, which resist cooking and digestion. Because these proteins are similar across many species, a person reactive to mackerel may also react to other fish.
IgE antibodies are the immune system's mediators of immediate allergy. A blood test quantifies mackerel-specific IgE, which helps distinguish a true allergic response from other causes of symptoms after eating fish, including scombroid poisoning from spoiled fish.
Results are reported as a numerical level and interpreted alongside a person's history. A detectable level indicates sensitization; whether symptoms occur and how severe they are depends on the individual and should be reviewed with a clinician.
