Allergen Profile With Total IgE, Respiratory−Area 8

This test measures the levels of Immunoglobulin E (IgE), which are antibodies the immune system produces in response to specific airborne triggers like pollen, mold, and pet dander. It helps determine if symptoms such as chronic sneezing, wheezing, or itchy eyes are caused by an allergic reaction to the environment. The results assist in distinguishing between allergic conditions, such as hay fever or asthma, and non-allergic respiratory infections. However, this test identifies sensitivity to specific substances and does not diagnose the severity of a potential reaction on its own.
