Shellfish allergies are among the most common food allergies, and reactions can range from mild to severe. This test panel measures IgE antibodies in the blood to four specific shellfish: crab, shrimp, clam, and lobster.

About Shellfish Allergy Test - Crab, Shrimp, Clam, Lobster in Aberdeen

The Shellfish Allergy Test - Crab, Shrimp, Clam, Lobster is a blood-based panel that evaluates sensitization to four distinct shellfish allergens.

The panel uses a single blood sample to measure immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies, the immune proteins associated with allergic responses. Elevated IgE levels to a particular shellfish may indicate that the immune system recognizes that protein as a threat, though a positive result alone does not confirm a clinical allergy.

Crab, shrimp, clam, and lobster are included because they represent commonly consumed crustaceans and mollusks. Sensitivity to one shellfish does not necessarily mean a person will react to all of them, which is why testing multiple allergens can provide a more complete picture.

Results are typically reported as quantitative values or class scores for each allergen. These findings are best interpreted alongside a person's medical history and symptoms by a qualified healthcare provider, who can determine whether additional evaluation is warranted.
