Measures immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies to 12 common indoor allergens to help determine allergy presence.
About this treatment
This test measures the level of immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies your immune system produces in response to 12 common indoor allergens. It helps you and your healthcare provider determine if you have an allergy. A positive result indicates the presence of IgE antibodies, but doesn't confirm an allergy diagnosis. Follow up with your healthcare provider for diagnosis and treatment. This test is valuable for identifying potential allergy triggers and managing symptoms.
Good to know

- 20–200+ substances (varies by panel)
- Fasting Required
- No
- Sample Type
- Blood draw
- Turnaround
- 5–10 business days
- Common Use
- Allergy mapping, elimination diet guidance
Who is this for?
People experiencing unexplained digestive issues, skin problems, or chronic fatigue that may be food-related. Anyone with known allergies who wants comprehensive mapping of their triggers. Parents investigating potential food sensitivities in children. People considering an elimination diet and wanting data to guide which foods to remove.
Preparation required
No fasting required. Continue eating your normal diet for at least 2–4 weeks before testing — avoiding suspected trigger foods can cause false negatives. Inform the clinic of any antihistamines or immunosuppressants you're taking, as these can affect results.
Panel categories
Biomarkers tested
14A liver enzyme that helps convert proteins into energy. ALT is found primarily in the liver, making it a highly specific marker for liver damage. Elevated levels may indicate hepatitis, fatty liver disease, or medication-related liver injury.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Aspergillus mold.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Tropical house dust mite allergens.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Cat dander.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Cladosporium mold.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to cockroach.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Dermatophagoides farinae (dust mite).
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (dust mite).
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Dog dander.
A group of proteins in blood including antibodies (immunoglobulins), transport proteins, and enzymes. Elevated globulin can indicate chronic infection, inflammation, or blood cancers. Calculated by subtracting albumin from total protein.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to goose feather allergens.
Measures IgE antibodies specific to house dust allergens.
Immunoglobulin 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').
Measures IgE antibodies specific to Penicillium mold.
