F092-IgE Banana is a specialized allergy test that measures immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies specific to banana protein. This test helps diagnose banana allergies and sensitivities, which can occur as a standalone allergy or as part of a broader fruit allergy syndrome. Banana allergy can cause various symptoms including oral allergy syndrome (itching or swelling of the mouth and throat), skin reactions like hives or eczema, gastrointestinal issues, and in rare cases, anaphylaxis. This test is particularly valuable for evaluating patients with suspected fruit allergies, distinguishing between banana-specific allergies and cross-reactivity with other fruits or latex, and guiding dietary modifications for individuals with confirmed banana allergies. The ImmunoCAP methodology ensures accurate and reliable allergy diagnosis.
