Raisins are dried grapes and a natural sweet treat. Although raisins are not considered a common food allergen, they can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. This test helps detect sensitization to raisin allergens, aiding in the diagnosis and management of allergic conditions.

Raisin allergy is rare but can present with a variety of symptoms that are sometimes difficult to diagnose. In children, allergy symptoms include tearing, sneezing, runny nose, abdominal cramps, skin itching, facial redness, and oropharyngeal symptoms (itching, tingling in the mouth and throat). In some cases, the allergy can cause respiratory distress. It is important to also rule out mold allergy, which may accompany sensitization to raisins.
