Order Scallop Allergy Test | Shellfish AllergyScallop allergy testing measures immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in the blood to help determine whether a person is sensitized to scallops, a type of shellfish.

About Scallop Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Colton
This test detects IgE antibodies that target scallop proteins.
An IgE antibody blood test is a laboratory method used to assess allergic sensitization. A blood sample is drawn and analyzed for antibodies that bind specifically to scallop proteins.
Shellfish allergies are commonly divided into two groups: crustaceans, which include shrimp, crab, and lobster, and mollusks, which include scallops, clams, oysters, and mussels. A person may be allergic to one group without reacting to the other.
Results are reported as a quantitative value and are interpreted alongside a person's medical history and symptoms. An elevated IgE level suggests sensitization, but it does not by itself confirm a clinical allergy or predict the severity of a reaction.
