About Tuna Allergy Test | Fish Allergies in Somerville
Tuna allergy testing focuses on the immune system's response to a distinct set of fish proteins.
The test detects IgE antibodies that bind to proteins found in tuna. When these antibodies are present, they suggest the immune system has been sensitized to tuna, though sensitization alone does not always produce symptoms.
Tuna is a fish, and fish allergies are among the more common food allergies in adults. Reactions can range from mild oral itching to more serious responses, and they may occur with cooked as well as raw fish.
Because different fish contain different allergenic proteins, a reaction to one type of fish does not guarantee a reaction to another. A tuna-specific IgE result helps clarify whether tuna in particular is involved.
