Description
A "childhood allergy profile with reflexes" refers to a blood test that measures a child's IgE antibodies to a panel of common allergens, and if a positive reaction is detected for certain allergens like milk, egg, or peanut, the test automatically performs additional testing on specific components of that allergen to provide a more detailed understanding of the allergy and potential triggers.
This panel includes the following:
- A. ALTERNATA IgE
- C. HERBARUM IgE
- COCKROACH, GERMAN IgE
- CAT EPITHELIUM IgE
- DOG DANDER IgE
- D. FARINAE IgE
