Green Bean (f315) IgE details
What Green Bean (f315) IgE shows
Green beans (string beans) are the edible pods of the common bean plant, a member of the legume family alongside peas, lentils, soy and peanut. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to green bean proteins to check for allergic sensitization. A positive result can help explain symptoms such as mouth itching, hives, swelling or digestive upset after eating green beans, or reactions when handling raw beans. Sensitization to one legume can overlap with others. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, so it needs to be read against your symptoms and history, and an allergist may recommend further evaluation.
