This test measures the specific IgE antibodies to the German cockroach, an allergen commonly associated with asthma and allergic reactions. Detecting specific IgE can help diagnose allergies to cockroaches, which are often significant triggers in asthma and allergic rhinitis, especially in urban environments. The test provides results as a quantitative measure of allergen-specific IgE, expressed in kilounits per liter (kU/L), and classified into allergy class ratings from negative to very high.
