Walnut

The Walnut test measures the presence and levels of specific IgE antibodies produced by the immune system in response to proteins found in walnuts. These proteins can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, particularly when consuming walnuts or foods containing walnuts derivatives. Elevated IgE levels suggest an allergy to walnuts, 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.
