Patient preparation
MetaMetrics range of immunological tests help identify those with true IgE-mediated allergies as well as IgG-mediated food intolerances.
IgE MEDIATED ALLERGIES
When the body is exposed to an allergen, IgE triggers the release of chemicals, which manifests as an allergic reaction. MetaMetrics performs quantitative detection of allergen-specific IgE antibodies in human serum and plasma (citrate) using enzyme immunoassay on a nitrocellulose membrane (immunoblot) technology. The test has been compared in a clinical trial with the commonly accepted “gold standard” in allergy testing- Skin Prick Test (SPT). The results showed that both methods have parity reliability in determining specific IgE. MetaMetrics IgE Allergy test complements the current Skin Prick Test for IgE determination and improved diagnosis in clinical practice.
IgE 20 Inhalant Allergy Test measures the IgE antibodies from 20 inhalant allergens. See sample test result here.
