Quest DiagnosticsWhat this laboratory test evaluates
Turkey Meat (f284) IgE The Turkey Meat (f284) IgE test measures a person's IgE response to turkey meat, helping to identify potential food allergies. This test is performed in a lab and is used alongside other clinical information for a comprehensive diagnosis. While a positive result indicates sensitivity to turkey meat, it doesn't necessarily mean you'll experience allergic symptoms upon eating it. A thorough evaluation by a healthcare provider is essential for an accurate food allergy diagnosis.

• Recent use of antihistamines
• Uncooperative patients
• Risk of severe allergic reaction from skin testing
What type of sample is required?0.3 mL serum.
