Allergy - House Dust Mite (Dermatophagoides farinae), ImmunoCAP

Allergy - House Dust Mite (Dermatophagoides farinae), ImmunoCAP test measures the IgE-mediated response to inhalant dust mites using the ImmunoCAP technique. When you come in close contact with allergy-causing substances called allergens, the immune system releases Immunoglobulin-E (IgE) antibodies to protect the body against specific allergens. This test measures specific allergy (sIgE) against Dermatophagoides farinae (house dust mites). These are highly allergenic and responsible for the most common causes of allergic disease in the world, affecting the upper and lower airways, eyes, skin, and less frequently, the gastrointestinal tract. The allergic symptoms may include sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, coughing, wheezing, and difficulty breathing
