About Mosquito Allergy Test | Insect Allergies in Westfield
Mosquito allergy testing examines the immune system's response to proteins found in mosquito saliva.
When a mosquito bites, it injects saliva into the skin. Several proteins in that saliva can act as allergens, prompting the immune system to produce IgE antibodies against them.
A blood sample is analyzed for IgE antibodies that bind specifically to mosquito allergens. The presence and level of these antibodies can support a clinical evaluation of reactions to mosquito bites.
Results are typically interpreted alongside a person's history of bite reactions. A qualified healthcare professional can explain what the findings mean in the context of individual symptoms.
