Aspergillus niger (m207) IgE details
What Aspergillus niger (m207) IgE shows
Aspergillus niger is a black mould that grows on soil, decaying plants and spoiled foods such as onions and fruit, and it is also used industrially to make enzymes and food additives. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to the mould Aspergillus niger in your blood. Spores can be breathed in indoors or outdoors, and the test helps check whether this mould may contribute to nasal, eye or breathing symptoms. Aspergillus species can cross-react with each other, so a positive result is often reviewed together with other mould results. A positive result shows sensitization, meaning your immune system has made IgE to this allergen, but not necessarily an allergy, so it needs to be read against your symptoms and history.
