About Macadamia Nut Allergy Test | Nut Allergies in Berkeley
IgE antibodies are the immune system's mediators of immediate allergic reactions.
When a person is sensitized to macadamia nut proteins, the immune system produces IgE antibodies that recognize those proteins. During testing, a blood sample is analyzed to measure the level of macadamia-specific IgE.
Elevated specific IgE may support a diagnosis of macadamia nut allergy when considered alongside a person's medical history and reported symptoms. Results are interpreted by a healthcare professional, as sensitization does not always equate to clinical allergy.
Macadamia nuts are tree nuts, and individuals with an allergy to one tree nut may also react to others. Testing can help clarify which specific nut proteins trigger an immune response.
