About Flaxseed Allergy Test | Linseed Allergy in Hampton
Flaxseed allergy testing measures the immune system's antibody response to flax proteins.
Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) contains several proteins that can act as allergens. When a susceptible person is exposed to these proteins, the immune system may produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies directed against them.
A blood test for flaxseed allergy detects and quantifies IgE antibodies that bind specifically to flaxseed proteins. The presence of such antibodies, combined with a compatible clinical history, supports the identification of a flaxseed allergy.
Exposure to flaxseed is not always obvious. Ground or whole flaxseed can appear in cereals, breads, snack bars, and other processed foods, so reactions may occur without a person realizing they have consumed the seed.
