Understanding Allergy - Vegetarian + Non-Vegetarian Panel, ImmunoCAP in Mumbai
What is Allergy - Vegetarian + Non-Vegetarian Panel, ImmunoCAP in Mumbai?
The Allergy - Vegetarian + Non-Vegetarian Panel, ImmunoCAP includes a group of blood tests available at an affordable price in Mumbai with Tata 1mg labs. This panel evaluates your Total IgE (antibodies produced by the immune system in response to allergens) as well as specific IgE against a wide range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food allergens using the ImmunoCAP technique.
Your doctor may suggest the Allergy - Vegetarian + Non-Vegetarian Panel, ImmunoCAP if you exhibit symptoms associated with food allergy such as nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nasal congestion, sneezing, itchy/watery eyes, coughing, wheezing, skin rashes, hives, etc. Doctors may also perform this test if there are no specific symptoms and cause of the allergy is not clear.
No special preparation is required for the Allergy - Vegetarian + Non-Vegetarian Panel, ImmunoCAP. However, inform your doctor about any medications (such as antihistamines) you are taking, as they might influence your test results.
What does Allergy - Vegetarian + Non-Vegetarian Panel, ImmunoCAP measure?
Contains 23 testsThe Allergy - Vegetarian + Non-Vegetarian Panel, ImmunoCAP measures total and specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in the blood associated with allergic reactions to both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food allergens. This comprehensive panel targets a range of triggers including common vegetarian allergens like wheat, rice, soyabean, cow milk, lemon, tomato, onion, garlic, pineapple, peanut, lentils, and olive, as well as non-vegetarian allergens like shrimp, cod fish, beef, pork, chicken meat, blue mussel, egg yolk, egg white, tuna and salmon. This panel utilized the ImmunoCAP assay, a highly accurate and sensitive procedure that provides quantitative measurement of IgE antibodies and helps accurately diagnose food allergies and assess their severity.
Total IgE
Immunoglobulins are antibodies (proteins) produced by plasma cells (specific immune cells) when the body recognizes bacteria, viruses, other microorganisms, or any other unknown substances as harmful foreign antigens (allergy-causing substances or allergens) to the immune system. There are five types of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgG, IgM, IgD, and IgE.
Unlike other antibodies, IgE is primarily associated with immune responses to allergenic substances, such as plant pollen, latex, pet dander, mold, eggs, peanuts, bee venom, and strawberries. Typically, IgE is present in tiny amounts in the blood. When the immune system encounters an allergen, it triggers the production of IgE antibodies. The Total IgE test measures the concentration of these IgE antibodies in the blood, providing insights into the presence and severity of allergies.
