About Clam Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Beverly
Clam allergy is one form of shellfish allergy, and it is distinct from fish allergy.
Shellfish allergy involves immune reactions to proteins found in crustaceans and mollusks. Clams are mollusks, along with oysters, mussels, and scallops, while shrimp, crab, and lobster are crustaceans.
An IgE antibody test measures the immune system's antibody response to clam proteins in a blood sample. IgE antibodies are associated with immediate-type allergic reactions.
A test result is interpreted alongside a person's history and other findings. It does not by itself confirm or rule out a clinical allergy, and it does not predict how severe a reaction might be.
