Performing Lab
Acacia (T19) IgE

Clinical Use
Order TestUse
This test quantifies an individual’s IgE response to acacia. Allergen‑specific serum IgE testing is considered comparable to skin testing and may be preferred in some clinical situations. However, a positive test result only indicates that a patient is sensitized to the allergen and many sensitized individuals do not develop symptoms upon exposure. A diagnosis of allergy should only be made by a trained medical provider after conducting a thorough clinical evaluation.
