About Silkworm Silk Allergy Test | Occupational in Passaic

Silk is a natural protein fiber produced by the larvae of the silkworm moth Bombyx mori. While often considered a luxury textile, silk can also act as an airborne and contact allergen.

Allergic reactions to silk are most often associated with proteins in the cocoon and the sericin that coats the silk fibroin filaments. Exposure can occur during textile manufacturing, handling of raw silk, or use of silk-containing bedding and clothing.

Occupational exposure is a recognized concern in silk-reeling, spinning, and weaving settings, where workers may inhale dust or come into contact with silk fibers. Symptoms reported in sensitized individuals include rhinitis, asthma, conjunctivitis, and skin reactions.

This test detects allergen-specific IgE in the blood. A positive result indicates sensitization to silkworm silk proteins; it does not by itself diagnose a clinical allergy, so results should be interpreted alongside exposure history and symptoms by a qualified healthcare professional.
