Allergy - Vegetarian + Nonvegetarian Food Panel
66+ booked in last 3 daysAllergy Food Panel Overview
An allergy is a hypersensitivity disorder of the immune system that causes undesirable reactions to certain substances like food, dust, pollen, drugs or even animal dander. These reactions normally do not occur in others. The substance causing the reaction is an allergen. Immunoglobin E is an antibody that the body produces in case of an allergic reaction. The total IgE test is a blood test used to measure the complete IgE levels in the blood, but it does not indicate what the specific allergen causing the reaction. .
The Allergy-Vegetarian + Nonvegetarian Panel is a comprehensive diagnostic test designed to identify specific food allergies by measuring IgE antibodies against 22 common allergens from both vegetarian (e.g., egg white, wheat, peanut, soybean, cow milk, egg yolk, pineapple, lemon, rice, lentil, olive, tomato, garlic, onion) and nonvegetarian sources (e.g., chicken, beef, pork, cod fish, shrimp, tuna, salmon, blue mussel). This test helps diagnose food allergies to manage symptoms, guide dietary choices, improve quality of life, and prevent severe allergic reactions. It provides accurate results with a faster turnaround time, facilitating timely and effective allergy management.

Frequently Asked Questions
Allergy Food Panel is done in suspected allergies due to certain vegetarian and non-vegetarian food ingredients commonly used for cooking to determine the exact source causing it (allergen).
Allergy panel test measures the IgE-mediated response to 22 common vegetarian and non-vegetarian food ingredients used for cooking. These include egg white, wheat, peanut, soya bean, cow milk, chicken meat, beef, pork, egg yolk, cod fish, shrimp, tuna, salmon, blue mussel, pineapple, lemon, rice, lentil, olive, tomato, garlic, and onion. Total IgE levels are also measured.
Allergy panel test requires a blood sample post exposure to the allergens. A tourniquet (elastic) band is placed tightly on the upper arm. The patient is then asked to make a fist. This helps in the build-up of blood filling the veins. The skin is disinfected before needle insertion and the blood sample is collected in vacutainer.
A positive result to an allergen indicates that the person is allergic to it. Increased allergen-specific IgE levels further confirm that. Very often the test may be positive for more than one allergen as well. Negative results may require other tests for differential diagnosis.
People who show unexplainable symptoms of stomach pain, diarrhoea, vomiting or skin rash after eating vegetarian or non-vegetarian food should get tested for an allergy-vegetarian+ non-vegetarian panel test.
