Order Scallop Allergy Test | Shellfish AllergyScallops are bivalve mollusks, a subgroup of shellfish that also includes clams, mussels, oysters, and cockles. An allergy to scallops is an immune response to proteins found in the edible portion of the mollusk. This profile measures specific IgE antibodies in a blood sample to help assess sensitization to scallop proteins.
About Scallop Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Wildomar
Understanding scallop allergy and IgE testing
Shellfish allergy is divided into two broad categories: crustaceans, such as shrimp, crab, and lobster, and mollusks, such as scallops, clams, and squid. Reactions to mollusks can occur independently of crustacean allergy, so a person may tolerate shrimp while reacting to scallops, or the reverse.
The scallop allergy profile detects IgE antibodies that bind to scallop proteins. IgE is the antibody class associated with immediate hypersensitivity reactions. A blood sample is analyzed for the presence and level of scallop-specific IgE, which can support a clinician's evaluation alongside symptom history and, when appropriate, other testing.
Results are reported as a quantitative value with a reference range. A detectable level indicates sensitization, meaning the immune system has produced antibodies to scallop proteins. Sensitization does not always correspond to clinical symptoms, so the result is interpreted in the context of the person's medical history and any prior reactions.
