About Meat Allergy Testing | Allergies to Meat in Durham
This IgE blood allergy test panel assesses sensitivity to five common meats: chicken, turkey, beef, pork, and lamb.
Each component of the panel measures IgE antibodies directed at proteins from a particular meat. A single sample is sufficient to evaluate all five at once.
IgE antibodies are central to immediate-type allergic reactions. Their presence in blood indicates that the immune system has been sensitized to a specific meat protein, though sensitization alone does not always produce symptoms.
Results are typically available within one to three business days. Follow the lab's instructions before the draw to help ensure an accurate specimen.
