Ash; Oak; Alder; Maple; Birch — specific IgE tree pollen panel
Study of specific class IgE immunoglobulins to tree pollen allergens. Determines body reaction to tree allergens, detects allergy, and evaluates seasonal allergic reaction risk (rhinitis, sneezing, eye itching, cough, bronchial asthma exacerbation).
Panel composition: Ash, Oak, Alder, Maple, Birch
Method: ELISA or ImmunoCAP (high sensitivity and specificity)
Clinical significance: Identifies specific allergens causing seasonal reactions, aids preventive planning, ASIT monitoring, and diagnosis of allergic diseases.
Biomaterial: Venous blood
- Draw blood fasting
- Exclude alcohol the day before
- Avoid intense physical activity and stress before testing
Medications:
Inform physician of hormonal drugs, immunomodulators, and antihistamines
- Seasonal allergic symptoms related to tree flowering;
- recurrent sneezing, rhinitis, lacrimation;
- bronchial asthma exacerbation in spring-summer;
- suspected pollinosis;
- planning allergen-specific immunotherapy;
- allergy dynamics monitoring.
Elevated specific IgE — sensitization to specific tree pollen allergens; potential allergic reaction on contact.
Low specific IgE — possible absence of significant sensitization or immunological tolerance.
Final interpretation by physician considering clinical picture, history, and other studies.
Recommended physicians: Allergist, Immunologist, General Practitioner.
