About Silkworm Silk Allergy Test | Occupational in New Bern
Silk is a protein fiber, and like other protein-based materials it can act as an allergen.
Cultured silk comes from the cocoons of Bombyx mori larvae. The fibers are handled, spun, and woven into textiles, and the associated dust and airborne particles can carry allergenic proteins.
Occupational exposure occurs in sericulture, textile manufacturing, and other settings where raw silk is processed. Sensitization may present as rhinitis, conjunctivitis, asthma-like symptoms, or skin reactions after contact.
This test detects circulating allergen-specific IgE. A positive result indicates sensitization to silk proteins; it does not by itself establish that symptoms are caused by silk exposure, so results are interpreted alongside the clinical history.
