About Candida Albicans Allergy Test | Allergies in Harker Heights
This test detects IgE antibodies specific to Candida albicans.
Candida albicans is a yeast that naturally resides in the human body, particularly in the mouth, gut, and on the skin. Under normal conditions, it coexists with the body's microbiota without causing issues. However, an overgrowth or an allergic sensitization can lead to symptoms.
The Candida Albicans Allergy Test uses a blood sample to measure the level of IgE antibodies directed against this yeast. Elevated IgE levels indicate that the immune system has recognized Candida albicans as an allergen and produced a specific antibody response.
This test is typically ordered when a healthcare provider suspects that Candida albicans may be contributing to allergic symptoms. It is important to note that the presence of IgE antibodies does not necessarily mean that Candida albicans is the cause of your symptoms; clinical correlation is required.
