A codfish allergy test measures the amount of specific IgE antibodies in the blood that react to codfish proteins. It is used to help identify an immune response to cod, a white fish commonly consumed in many diets.

About Codfish Allergy Test | Fish Allergy in Lee's Summit

This test evaluates sensitization to codfish through a blood sample.

The test detects immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies that bind to proteins found in codfish. When a person is sensitized to cod, these antibodies can trigger allergic symptoms upon exposure.

Elevated IgE levels to codfish may indicate an allergy, but results are interpreted alongside clinical history and other findings. A positive result does not always confirm a clinical allergy, and a negative result does not entirely rule it out.

Codfish is a distinct species; reactions to cod do not necessarily imply allergy to other fish. Cross-reactivity can occur with related fish, so testing helps clarify the specific trigger.
