Assessing Allergen-Specific Antibodies for Comprehensive Immune and Allergy Health Insight
The blood usually has small amounts of IgE antibodies. Higher amounts can be a sign that the body overreacts to allergens, which can lead to an allergic reaction. IgE levels can also be high when the body is fighting an infection from a parasite and from some immune system conditions.

How our test process works!
The Total IgE (Immunoglobulin E) Test measures the concentration of IgE antibodies in the blood. These antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to allergens, infections, and certain immune-related conditions. Elevated IgE levels can indicate an allergic response, parasitic infections, or other immune disorders.
Sample Type
- Blood Sample: A venous blood sample is drawn, usually from the arm.
Preparation: No fasting or special preparation is typically required.
