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 1651
  • C. HERBARUM IgE 1658
  • COCKROACH, GERMAN IgE 1671
  • CAT EPITHELIUM IgE 1679
