A crab allergy test measures the presence of specific IgE antibodies in the blood that react to crab proteins. This type of blood test is used to help identify an immune response consistent with a shellfish allergy.

About Crab Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Peekskill

Crab allergy testing provides objective information about sensitization to crab allergens.

The test detects immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies that bind to proteins found in crab. When the immune system mistakenly identifies these proteins as harmful, it can produce IgE antibodies that trigger allergic symptoms upon exposure.

A blood sample is collected and analyzed in a laboratory. The result is reported as a quantitative or semi-quantitative value, often alongside a reference range, which a healthcare provider interprets in the context of a person's history and symptoms.

Crab is a crustacean, and allergenic proteins in crab can cross-react with those in other shellfish such as shrimp, lobster, and crayfish. Because of this, a crab allergy test may be ordered as part of a broader evaluation for shellfish allergy.
