Order Cotton Seed Allergy Test | Cottonseed OilCottonseed allergy is an immune-mediated reaction to proteins found in the seeds of the cotton plant. Although cotton is grown primarily for fiber, its seeds and the oil pressed from them appear in a range of foods and consumer products, which means exposure is not always obvious. A blood test can help identify sensitization by measuring specific antibodies against cottonseed proteins.
About Cotton Seed Allergy Test | Cottonseed Oil in Amarillo
Cottonseed is a less familiar allergen, but it has a documented presence in the food supply and in certain non-food items.
Cottonseed flour and cottonseed oil are used in some baked goods, snack foods, and dietary supplements. Refined cottonseed oil is generally considered to have little allergenic protein remaining, while cold-pressed or less refined oils may retain more.
Reactions to cottonseed have been reported after ingestion of foods containing cottonseed flour or oil, and in some cases after handling or exposure to cotton products. Symptoms can resemble those of other food allergies, including skin, respiratory, or gastrointestinal effects.
Because cottonseed ingredients are often listed under less obvious names, testing can be useful when a person or clinician suspects a link between symptoms and cottonseed exposure. Results are interpreted alongside a clinical history, since sensitization does not always mean a clinical allergy.
