Mouse Epithelia (e71) IgE details
What Mouse Epithelia (e71) IgE shows
This test measures IgE antibodies to proteins from mouse epithelia, meaning skin cells and dander shed by mice. Exposure happens with pet mice, in homes with mice, and in laboratories or animal facilities. A positive result can help explain nasal, eye, chest or skin symptoms that occur around mice. Much of mouse allergen comes from urine, which is tested separately, so the two results are often looked at together. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, and needs to be read against your symptoms and exposure.
