What is a Immunoglobulin E (IgE) blood test?
The IgE blood test detects allergies by measuring IgE antibody levels in response to triggers like food, pollen, or dust mites. It helps diagnose conditions such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and food allergies. Elevated IgE levels indicate a possible allergic reaction.
Detect allergens
Allergy testing helps identify common triggers such as dust mites, pollen, shellfish, and nuts allowing for better prevention and management of allergic reactions.
Manage symptoms
By pinpointing specific allergens, allergy testing enables targeted treatment to manage symptoms like nasal congestion, skin rashes, breathing difficulties, or severe allergic reactions like anaphylaxis.
Tailored testing
Tests are customised to reflect allergens commonly found in Singapore’s climate and lifestyle, ensuring relevant, accurate results for effective allergy management in local conditions.
