Understanding Allergy - Tomato (Tamatar), ImmunoCAP in Aligarh


What is Allergy - Tomato (Tamatar), ImmunoCAP in Aligarh?

The Allergy - Tomato (Tamatar), ImmunoCAP test is a specialized allergy test that measures specific IgE antibodies against tomato proteins using the ImmunoCAP technique. This test aids in identifying tomato and tomato-based food allergies and helps doctors formulate effective care plans to manage symptoms and prevent reactions. It is widely available with Tata 1Mg labs at an affordable price in Aligarh.

The Allergy - Tomato (Tamatar), ImmunoCAP test is recommended for individuals who experience symptoms such as swelling, itching, or discomfort in the mouth or throat, as well as skin rashes, abdominal pain, nausea, or diarrhea after consuming tomatoes or tomato-based products. It is especially useful in diagnosing tomato allergies and distinguishing them from other conditions like oral allergy syndrome (OAS) or food intolerances. OAS occurs when certain raw fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes, cause itching or swelling of the lips, mouth, or throat due to cross-reactivity between tomato proteins and pollen from plants like birch or grass. 

No special preparation is required for this test. Eat and drink as per the daily routine.
