An allergy to codfish is one of the more frequently reported fish allergies, and it can range from mild oral itching to serious systemic reactions. This test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood to help identify sensitization to codfish proteins.

About Codfish Allergy Test | Fish Allergy in Hoffman Estates

Codfish allergy testing focuses on the immune system's response to proteins found in cod.

Codfish, also called cod, is a widely consumed white fish. In people with a codfish allergy, the immune system mistakenly identifies certain proteins in the fish as harmful and produces immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against them.

This test uses a blood sample to measure the level of codfish-specific IgE. Elevated results suggest that the immune system has been sensitized to codfish proteins, which can support a diagnosis when considered alongside a person's symptoms and history.

Fish allergies are distinct from shellfish allergies, and reactions to one type of fish do not always mean all fish will trigger symptoms. A healthcare provider can interpret the results and advise on whether additional testing or dietary guidance is appropriate.
