Performing Lab
Allergen Specific IgG Sunflower Seed
Clinical Use
Order TestUse
This immunoassay quantifies an individual’s serum IgG response to sunflower seed. Detection of specific IgG indicates sensitization, but does not confirm clinical allergy; diagnosis should rely on clinical correlation and evaluation by a trained provider.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
A positive IgG result indicates exposure and sensitization to sunflower seed allergens, but does not predict symptomatic allergy – many sensitized individuals remain asymptomatic. Interpretation requires clinical context and should not be used in isolation for allergy diagnosis.
