Allergens, Mold Profile, Southeast Comprehensive
Also known as: SEMOLDPRO
Use
The Allergens, Mold Profile, Southeast Comprehensive is designed to quantitatively measure specific IgE antibodies to a variety of mold allergens using the ImmunoCAP Fluorescent Enzyme Immunoassay. It helps in diagnosing allergic reactions to molds in patients. The test results are essential for correlating laboratory findings with clinical history and evaluating patient sensitivity to these allergens.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
This test measures the concentration of allergen-specific IgE but does not predict the severity of allergic reactions. The range 0.10-0.34 kU/L is clinically undetermined and is primarily for specialist use. Even though increasing IgE levels indicate higher sensitization risk, they may not correlate with in vivo reactivity or skin test results.
