Strawberry Allergen IgG (Non-NY)

About Test

The Strawberry Allergen IgG test is a laboratory test used to detect the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies to strawberries in a person's blood. IgG antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to exposure to allergens, including foods.

The Strawberry Allergen IgG test is used to help diagnose a food allergy to strawberries, which is an adverse reaction to the proteins found in strawberries. Some common symptoms of a strawberry allergy include itching or tingling in the mouth, hives, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and difficulty breathing.

The Strawberry Allergen IgG test is usually done as part of an evaluation for food allergies, especially in people who have symptoms such as itching or tingling in the mouth, hives, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and difficulty breathing after eating strawberries or other related foods. The results of the test, along with a person's clinical symptoms and other factors, can help healthcare providers diagnose and manage a food allergy and guide treatment decisions.

It's important to note that the Strawberry Allergen IgG test is not a definitive diagnostic test for a food allergy, and a positive result should be confirmed with other tests. The results of the Strawberry Allergen IgG test should be considered along with a person's overall health status, clinical symptoms, and other factors that may contribute to the symptoms of a food allergy.
