This test determines sensitization to a mixture of fruit allergens: pear, lemon, strawberry, and pineapple. The analysis helps detect allergic reactions, assess the risk of their development, and monitor the effectiveness of therapy.

This test includes the following allergens: f94 pear, f208 lemon, f44 strawberry, f210 pineapple.

This test is important for identifying two types of allergic reactions to plant-based foods: true food allergy and cross-reactive allergy. For example, sensitization to pear may be associated with cross-reactive allergy to peach, apple, plum, and other fruits of the Rosaceae family due to shared lipid transfer proteins (LTP).

Lemon contains allergenic components that cross-react with peach, while strawberry is linked to birch pollen allergy, causing birch-fruit syndrome. Pineapplemay cause cross-reactive allergy with latex, requiring caution when in contact with latex products.

The test results help allergists make an accurate diagnosis, select effective therapy, and avoid complications.

  • Diagnosis of allergic reactions to fruits.
  • Assessment of sensitization level and risk of allergy development.
  • Monitoring the reduction of sensitization after avoiding allergen exposure and undergoing treatment.
  • Evaluation of immune system status.
