Horse

The Horse test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to proteins found in horse dander, saliva, and urine. These proteins can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, especially those who are exposed to horses including horse owners, equestrians, stable workers, and veterinarians. Elevated IgE levels suggest an allergy to horses, helping doctors diagnose and manage allergic reactions more effectively. This test is a highly accurate and reliable method for quantifying IgE antibodies, providing valuable insights into the severity of the allergic response and guiding further diagnostic and treatment decisions.
