Allergen Specific IgE Hackberry details
What Allergen Specific IgE Hackberry shows
Hackberry (Celtis) is a hardy tree common across much of the United States and related to elm, and it releases pollen in spring. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to hackberry tree pollen in your blood. It is used to check whether hackberry pollen may be behind seasonal symptoms such as sneezing, a runny nose or itchy eyes. A positive result can help explain symptoms during its spring pollen season and is usually evaluated as part of a regional tree pollen panel. A positive result shows sensitization rather than proof of allergy, so it needs to be read against when and where your symptoms occur.
