Egg White

This test measures the amount of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in egg whites. It helps show whether your immune system treats egg whites as harmful, which is useful for investigating symptoms like hives, stomach pain, or breathing trouble after eating eggs. This measurement helps doctors determine if an egg allergy is a likely cause of your symptoms compared to other food triggers. However, this test cannot predict how severe a future allergic reaction might be or confirm an allergy without a review of your medical history.
