Celery (f85) IgE details
What Celery (f85) IgE shows
Celery is eaten raw and cooked, and celery root and celery seed are used in soups, stocks, salads and spice blends, so it can be hidden in many foods. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to celery proteins to check for allergic sensitization. It can help when you notice mouth itching, hives, swelling or more severe symptoms after eating foods containing celery. A positive result shows that your immune system has made IgE to celery. Celery allergy is often linked to birch or mugwort pollen sensitization, and some celery reactions can be severe. IgE shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, so the result needs to be read against your symptoms and history.
