Allergy Food Panel is done in suspected allergies due to certain vegetarian and non-vegetarian food ingredients commonly used for cooking to determine the exact source causing it (allergen).
Allergy panel test measures the IgE-mediated response to 22 common vegetarian and non-vegetarian food ingredients used for cooking. These include egg white, wheat, peanut, soya bean, cow milk, chicken meat, beef, pork, egg yolk, cod fish, shrimp, tuna, salmon, blue mussel, pineapple, lemon, rice, lentil, olive, tomato, garlic, and onion. Total IgE levels are also measured.
Allergy panel test requires a blood sample post exposure to the allergens. A tourniquet (elastic) band is placed tightly on the upper arm. The patient is then asked to make a fist. This helps in the build-up of blood filling the veins. The skin is disinfected before needle insertion and the blood sample is collected in vacutainer.
A positive result to an allergen indicates that the person is allergic to it. Increased allergen-specific IgE levels further confirm that. Very often the test may be positive for more than one allergen as well. Negative results may require other tests for differential diagnosis.
