Rat urine contains proteins that can become airborne in dust and trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to rat urine to help identify an immune response.

About Rat Urine Allergy Test | Lab Testing in Ithaca

The Rat Urine Allergy Test is a blood test that detects IgE antibodies against proteins found in rat urine.

IgE antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to specific allergens. When a person is sensitized to rat urine proteins, these antibodies can bind to the allergen and trigger the release of histamine and other chemicals, leading to allergy symptoms.

Elevated levels of rat urine-specific IgE in the blood indicate sensitization, which may contribute to respiratory or other allergic symptoms upon exposure. This test is typically used alongside a clinical history to evaluate possible allergy.

A blood sample is collected and analyzed in a laboratory. Results are reported as a quantitative value, and the test does not require skin pricking or direct exposure to the allergen.
