Scallop allergy testing measures the immune system's response to proteins found in scallops, a type of shellfish. The test uses a blood sample to detect specific IgE antibodies that the body may produce when it identifies scallop proteins as a threat.

About Scallop Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Bothell

Scallop allergy is an immune reaction triggered by proteins present in scallop meat.

When a person with a scallop allergy eats or comes into contact with scallops, the immune system releases IgE antibodies and histamine, which can cause symptoms ranging from mild itching or hives to more serious reactions.

This test detects the presence of scallop-specific IgE antibodies in the blood. A positive result indicates that the immune system has been sensitized to scallop proteins, though a healthcare professional should interpret results alongside a person's medical history and symptoms.

Scallop allergy is distinct from other shellfish allergies, and reactions to one type of shellfish do not always mean a person will react to another. Testing provides objective information that can help guide dietary and safety decisions.
