About Crab Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Ridgewood

Crab is a crustacean and one of the more common sources of shellfish allergens.

Shellfish allergies are among the most frequently reported food allergies in adults. Reactions can occur after eating crab or, in some cases, after inhaling steam or vapors from cooking shellfish.

A crab allergy test detects IgE antibodies, which are produced by the immune system when it identifies a substance as a threat. Elevated levels of crab-specific IgE may support a diagnosis of shellfish allergy when considered alongside a person's symptoms and history.

Because shellfish belong to distinct groups, a reaction to crab does not automatically mean a reaction to all seafood. A clinician interprets test results in the context of the individual's overall health and exposure history.
