The test determines the body's sensitization to a mixture of food products. The analysis allows detection of the level of IgE antibodies responsible for allergic reactions. This is an important test for allergy diagnosis, risk assessment of reaction development, and therapy effectiveness monitoring.

This test includes the following allergens: f3 cod, f4 wheat flour, f17 hazelnut, f14 soy.

Cod is one of the most common sources of food allergy, as it is a strong allergen containing, in particular, allergen component M (Gad c1). Allergic reactions can occur not only from consuming cod but also from contact with fish or inhaling vapors during cooking. There is a risk of anaphylaxis, especially in sensitized individuals.

Wheat flour contains a complex protein mixture, including gluten, albumins, globulins, profilins, and lipid transfer proteins (LTP), which can cause allergy or celiac disease. Gliadins and glutenins are especially dangerous as they are responsible for allergic reactions and baker’s asthma.

Hazelnut contains numerous allergen components that can cause oral allergy syndrome, especially in people sensitized to birch pollen. Some hazelnut proteins are stable to heating and digestion, increasing the risk of severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis.

Soy causes two types of allergy: IgE-mediated (immediate) and IgE-non-mediated (delayed). Symptoms can range from rash and gastrointestinal disorders to severe reactions, including anaphylactic shock. It is important to consider the possibility of cross-sensitization with cow’s milk.

  • Diagnosis of allergic reactions to food products.
  • Assessment of sensitization level and risk of allergy development.
  • Monitoring reduction of sensitization after allergen avoidance and therapy.
  • Evaluation of immune system status.

FEIA (Fluorescence Enzyme Immunoassay, ImmunoCAP (Solid-phase Immunofluorescence)) – quantitative determination.

Please note that the research method and reference values may vary depending on the equipment and test systems used.

  • Blood should be drawn in the morning on an empty stomach or 4 hours after eating.
  • Drinking plain still water is allowed.
  • Do not smoke for 30 minutes before the test.
  • For children under 1 year – no food 30-40 minutes before the test; for children 1-5 years – 2-3 hours fasting.
