Allergy Complete Testing (AL2)

UK’s most comprehensive allergy test panel with 295 allergens tested. Allergies affect around one in four of the general population. Many allergic patients do not take their allergy seriously and are suffering from subsequent complications, e.g. hay fever, allergic asthma or are subject to unnecessary dietary restrictions. This test can check for 295 relevant allergen sources (except drug allergens, such as penicillin). It also tests for molecular allergens,which allows for a comprehensive understanding of allergic cross reactions and a risk assessment of food allergies (to allow for tailormade dietary recommendations). Likewise, allergen-specific immunotherapy can be directed against the main trigger (available for pollen, house dust mites and insect venoms) of symptoms.This test looks for elevated levels of IgE which causes Type I allergies.

Biomarkers:

• IgE level per allergen
• Group IgE allergen levels
• Cross-reactive allergen families
• Total IgE levels (kU/L)
