About Peanut Allergy Test | Legume/Nut Allergy in Redding
Peanut allergy is one of the most common food allergies and can range from mild irritation to life-threatening anaphylaxis.
Peanuts are legumes, not tree nuts, though people with peanut allergy may also react to other legumes such as soy, lupine, or certain beans. The proteins in peanuts that most often trigger reactions include Ara h 1, Ara h 2, and Ara h 3.
A blood IgE test detects antibodies produced by the immune system in response to peanut proteins. Elevated specific IgE suggests sensitization, but results are interpreted alongside clinical history because sensitization does not always equal a clinical allergy.
Testing may be used when a person has experienced symptoms after eating peanuts or peanut-containing products, or when a healthcare provider needs to assess the likelihood of peanut allergy before considering other diagnostic steps.
