Order Basic Food Allergy Test PanelFood allergies occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies a harmless food protein as a threat and produces immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against it. The Basic Food Allergy Test Panel measures IgE reactivity to a defined set of common foods, helping to clarify whether symptoms such as hives, digestive upset, or respiratory complaints may be linked to specific dietary triggers.
About Basic Food Allergy Test Panel in Berkeley
The Basic Food Allergy Test Panel is a targeted IgE blood test covering 15 popular foods.
The panel screens for IgE antibodies directed at foods that account for a large share of allergic reactions in everyday diets, including milk, wheat, shrimp, peanuts, egg whites, soy, and walnuts.
Because the test is performed on a blood sample, it does not require exposure to the food itself. Results report the level of specific IgE for each allergen, which a clinician interprets alongside symptom history and other findings.
IgE testing is one part of a broader allergy evaluation. A positive result indicates sensitization, not necessarily a clinical allergy, and a negative result does not rule out every form of food-related reaction.
