A comprehensive allergy test measuring immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody responses to 107 common allergens across food, environmental, and contact categories. IgE-mediated allergies are the classic immediate-type reactions — hives, swelling, respiratory symptoms, or in severe cases, anaphylaxis. The panel identifies specific allergen sensitivities from a single blood draw, providing a detailed map of what the immune system is reacting to.
About this treatment
The Allergy 107 IgE Panel at Blessono Specialist Clinic tests for immunoglobulin E antibodies against 107 common allergens, providing a comprehensive picture of IgE-mediated (Type I) allergic sensitisation from a single blood draw.
IgE-mediated allergies are the body's immediate-response immune reactions. When a sensitised individual encounters an allergen, IgE antibodies on the surface of mast cells and basophils trigger the release of histamine and other mediators within minutes, producing symptoms ranging from mild (itching, hives, runny nose) to severe (angioedema, bronchospasm, anaphylaxis). Understanding exactly which allergens trigger this response is the foundation of…
The 107-allergen panel covers three major categories. Food allergens include common culprits such as shellfish, peanuts, tree nuts, cow's milk, egg, wheat, soy, fish, and stone fruits. Environmental allergens cover house dust mites, animal danders (cat, dog, horse), mould spores (Aspergillus, Alternaria, Cladosporium), grass pollens, tree pollens (birch, oak, cedar), and weed pollens (ragweed, mugwort). Contact allergens include latex, bee venom, wasp…

Who is this for?
Anyone experiencing unexplained allergic symptoms (hives, swelling, respiratory issues), patients wanting to identify specific allergens before allergy immunotherapy, parents investigating children's food allergies, and those who cannot undergo skin prick testing due to skin conditions or antihistamine use
Preparation required
No fasting required. Antihistamines do not need to be stopped (unlike skin prick testing). Inform the clinic of any medications and your symptom history to help focus the clinical interpretation.
Panel categories
Biomarkers tested
5Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is a protein associated with allergic reactions that is normally found in very small amounts in the blood. IgE functions as part of the body's immune system (its defence against 'intruders').
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the most common type of antibody in the blood, important for fighting bacterial and viral infections.
