FAQ
The Food Allergy Panel Test measures IgE antibodies against common food allergens to diagnose food allergies, identify specific food triggers (eggs, milk, peanuts, wheat, soy, fish, shellfish, tree nuts), differentiate food allergy from intolerance, guide dietary elimination, assess anaphylaxis risk, and manage food allergies effectively.
Yes, you can easily book the Food Allergy Panel Test online through Seviyaar with home blood sample collection available. Reports are delivered digitally within 2-4 days through Seviyaar's platform from NABL-certified partner labs.
No, fasting is not required for the Food Allergy Panel Test. You can eat and drink normally. The test requires a blood sample from the vein, collected by a trained phlebotomist. Inform your doctor about any medications, especially antihistamines, before the test.
Doctors recommend for unexplained hives or skin rashes after eating, swelling of lips/tongue/throat, nausea/vomiting/diarrhea following food, wheezing or breathing difficulty after eating, anaphylaxis symptoms, frequent digestive symptoms, recurrent abdominal pain, suspected food-triggered asthma, eczema worsening with food, infants with severe eczema, or pediatric food reactions.
Food Allergy Panel Test results are typically available within 2 to 4 days after sample collection. Some basic panels provide reports within 24 hours. Reports are conveniently delivered digitally through Seviyaar's platform with notifications for quick medical consultation.
Food Allergy Panel Test results are quantitative (Class 0-6 or kU/L): Class 0 (<0.35 kU/L): Negative (no allergy). Class 1 (0.35-0.70 kU/L): Low level, allergy unlikely. Class 2 (0.70-3.50 kU/L): Moderate level, possible allergy. Class 3 (3.50-17.50 kU/L): High level, allergy likely. Class 4 (17.50-50.00 kU/L): Very high level, allergy very likely. Class 5-6 (>50 kU/L): Extremely high level, severe allergy. Your report includes class readings for each allergen with interpretation guidelines.
The Food Allergy Panel Test detects food allergy to milk/cow's milk allergy, egg allergy, peanut allergy, wheat allergy, soy allergy, fish allergy (salmon, tuna, cod), shellfish allergy (shrimp, crab, lobster), tree nut allergy (almond, walnut, cashew, pistachio), sesame allergy, rice allergy, meat allergy, food-induced urticaria, food-induced angioedema, food-induced anaphylaxis, IgE-mediated food hypersensitivity, atopic dermatitis with food trigger, food-induced asthma, eosinophilic esophagitis, oral allergy syndrome, and differentiates IgE-mediated food allergy from non-IgE food intolerance for appropriate diet management and anaphylaxis prevention.
