About this test in Alamo
Hazelnut, also known as filbert or cobnut, is a tree nut that can trigger IgE-mediated reactions. Several distinct proteins in the nut, including PR-10, lipid transfer protein, and seed storage proteins, may be involved. The test measures specific IgE antibodies produced against hazelnut proteins.
The sample is collected through a routine blood draw and analyzed in a laboratory. Results typically include hazelnut-specific IgE, total IgE, and a semiquantitative class. Component testing may report individual proteins such as Cor a 1, Cor a 8, Cor a 9, and Cor a 14, which can help a clinician assess reaction patterns.
People order this test after a suspected reaction to hazelnuts or when a broader tree nut evaluation is underway. Because hazelnut proteins also resemble some pollen proteins, a positive result can sometimes reflect cross-reactivity rather than a primary food allergy, which is why clinical context matters.
