Blueberry (f288) IgE details
What Blueberry (f288) IgE shows
Blueberry is a fruit eaten fresh, frozen, dried and in many baked goods and juices, and this test measures IgE antibodies specific to blueberry proteins to check for allergic sensitization. It can help when you notice itching in the mouth, hives, swelling or digestive symptoms after eating blueberries or foods made with them. A positive result shows that your immune system has made IgE to blueberry, while a negative result makes an IgE-mediated reaction less likely. Blueberry allergy is uncommon, and sensitization does not always mean you will react, so the result needs to be read against your symptoms and history.
