Chaetomium globosum

This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to Chaetomium globosum, a common type of indoor mold often found in water-damaged buildings. It helps show whether your immune system is sensitive to this fungus, which is useful for investigating symptoms like chronic sneezing, itchy eyes, or asthma. By identifying a specific reaction to this mold, the test helps distinguish allergic triggers from other respiratory conditions. However, this test only indicates an immune response and cannot determine if there is currently mold in your home or diagnose a fungal infection.
