Quest DiagnosticsWhat this laboratory test evaluates
Acarus siro (d70) IgE
This test measures the IgE antibody response to the Acarus siro, also known as Flour mite, allergen. It's a quantitative assay used alongside other clinical data to help diagnose specific allergic conditions.
Why might a Provider order this test?Providers may prefer this serum IgE test over skin tests for patients with extensive skin disease, those who have recently taken antihistamines or other medications that interfere with skin tests, patients who are uncooperative, or when there's a high risk of a severe allergic reaction from skin testing.
Understanding Your Results:A single test result shouldn't be the sole basis for a diagnosis. A healthcare provider will consider these results along with other clinical and laboratory findings to make a comprehensive diagnosis.
What type of sample is required for this test?0.3 mL serum.
