also known as Indoor respiratory allergen IgE panel - Serum
The mold allergy IgE test panel checks for five common mold allergens that can cause hay fever, asthma, atopic eczema and respiratory allergic reactions. Mold consists of tiny fungus spores that are airborne. They flourish in damp environments and can be found both outdoors and indoors. The mold allergy panel tests the blood for the following common mold spore allergens: Alternaria tenuis Aspergillus fumigatus Candida albicans Cladosporium herbarum Mucor racemosus Common mold allergy symptoms include: Sneezing Itchy and/or watery eyes Stuffy or runny nose Itchy nose, mouth and/or lips Traditional allergy tests utilize the Skin Prick method (also known as a Puncture or Scratch test) to determine whether an allergic reaction will occur by inserting possible triggers into your skin using a needle prick.
