About Pig Allergy Test | Allergic To Swine/Pigs in Berkeley
This test uses a blood sample to evaluate sensitization to swine epithelium.
IgE antibodies are part of the immune system's response to normally harmless substances. When someone is sensitized to swine epithelium, their body may produce IgE antibodies that recognize proteins from pig skin and tissue cells.
A blood test detects these antibodies and provides an objective measure of sensitization. It is often used alongside a clinical history, because the presence of IgE antibodies alone does not always mean symptoms will occur.
Swine epithelium exposure can happen in agricultural settings, in homes with pet pigs, or through certain occupational contacts. Results are typically reported as a quantitative or semi-quantitative value that a clinician interprets in context.
