Clinical Significance

The ImmunoCAP® Peanut IgE with Reflex allows patients to be screened for allergy to Peanuts. When the result is found to be positive, the ImmunoCAP® Peanut Component Test will automatically be run on the sample to determine which specific Peanut protein/s the patient has sensitivity to. In turn, this provides the clinician with more detailed information in order to assess the level of risk for life-threatening allergic reactions, and provide clarity regarding the patient's risk of an allergic reaction to ease fears and help target effective management.
