A pine nut allergy test measures the amount of immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies your immune system produces in response to pine nut proteins. Pine nuts, also called pignoles, are the edible seeds of certain pine trees and appear in pesto, salads, baked goods, and some regional cuisines. Because reactions to seeds can range from mild to severe, identifying a specific sensitivity helps clarify what triggers symptoms.

About Pine Nut (Pignoles) Allergy Test | Seeds in Ames

Pine nut allergy is an immune-mediated reaction to proteins found in the seeds of pine trees.

The test detects IgE antibodies in a blood sample. IgE is the class of antibody associated with immediate allergic responses, so its presence can support a clinical diagnosis when considered alongside your history and symptoms.

Pine nuts are seeds rather than true tree nuts, though people with pine nut allergy may also react to other seeds. Symptoms can include hives, itching, swelling, digestive upset, or breathing difficulty, and in some cases anaphylaxis.

Results are reported as a numeric value or a class score. A detectable level suggests sensitization, but diagnosis depends on the full clinical picture, so discuss findings with a qualified healthcare professional.
