Test results can aid specialists and other healthcare providers as they diagnose a patient's sensitization to the alpha-Gal carbohydrate found in mammalian (red) meat and assess his or her risk for an anaphylactic reaction.

Key Points: 
  • Test results can aid specialists and other healthcare providers as they diagnose a patient's sensitization to the alpha-Gal carbohydrate found in mammalian (red) meat and assess his or her risk for an anaphylactic reaction.
  • ImmunoCAP Specific IgE blood testing is the most widely used specific IgE blood test, and its use is documented in more than 6,000 peer-reviewed publications.
  • The tests can help identify allergic sensitization to common environmental allergens seasonal and perennial, outdoor and indoor as well as common food allergens such as peanut, egg and milk.
  • The ImmunoCAP Specific IgE Stinging Insect Allergen Component tests were recently cleared by the FDA to help improve the diagnosis of bee and wasp allergies.
