Also known as: G FOOD PAN

Clinical Use

Order Test

Use

The Allergens, Food, Extended Panel IgG test is used to measure the levels of IgG antibodies against various food allergens in the patient's serum. Elevated IgG levels may indicate exposure to dietary antigens and are typically evaluated in the context of food sensitivity. The test may assist healthcare practitioners in understanding potential food-related immune responses, although its clinical utility is debated and should be interpreted cautiously.

Special Instructions

Not provided.

Limitations

Results from IgG food allergy testing should not be used for the diagnosis of food allergies or intolerance alone. The presence of IgG antibodies to foods is a common aspect of the immune response in healthy individuals and does not necessarily implicate clinical pathology. False positives may occur, and results should not be used in isolation to guide dietary changes. The test has not been cleared or approved by the FDA.
