Mango Fruit (f91) IgE details
What Mango Fruit (f91) IgE shows
This test measures IgE antibodies directed at proteins in mango fruit, a tropical fruit eaten fresh, dried and in juices and chutneys. It is used to check for allergic sensitization when you have had symptoms such as itching, hives, swelling or stomach upset after eating or handling mango. A positive result shows that your immune system has made IgE to mango fruit, and higher levels make a true allergy more likely. Mango belongs to the same plant family as cashew and pistachio, and its peel can also cause skin reactions that are not IgE-related. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, so it needs to be read against your symptoms and history.
