About Cow Dander Allergy Test | Cattle Allergy in Norfolk
Cow dander allergy testing detects IgE antibodies that react to proteins found in cattle skin and hair.
Cow dander is a common trigger of respiratory and contact allergies, particularly among people who live or work around cattle. The allergens are small proteins carried on skin flakes and hair, which can become airborne and be inhaled.
The test uses a blood sample to measure specific IgE antibodies directed against cow dander. Unlike skin-prick testing, it does not require exposure to the allergen on the skin, and it can be performed while a person continues taking most medications.
Results are reported as a numerical level that indicates whether sensitization to cow dander is present. A positive result shows that the immune system has produced antibodies to cow dander, which can support a diagnosis when considered alongside symptoms and exposure history.
