Quick answer
An egg white allergy test is a blood test that detects immunoglobulin E antibodies against proteins in egg white, such as ovalbumin and ovomucoid. It is often ordered when someone reacts to eggs or egg-containing foods, or when a provider is evaluating a child with eczema or digestive symptoms. Results are interpreted by a qualified healthcare provider.
About this test in Altadena
Egg white contains several proteins that are recognized allergens, including ovalbumin, ovomucoid, ovotransferrin, and lysozyme. Egg allergy is one of the more common food allergies in young children, and many children outgrow it over time. Reactions can range from skin and digestive symptoms to more significant responses, so suspicion of egg allergy is usually evaluated with medical input.
The assay measures specific IgE antibodies in a serum sample collected from a vein. Laboratories typically report a quantitative level and a graded class. Component tests such as ovomucoid (Gal d 1) and ovalbumin (Gal d 2) may be added to give a more detailed picture, and some panels include egg yolk testing for comparison.
People often order this test after a reaction to eggs or egg-containing foods such as baked goods or sauces. It may also be considered when a child has persistent eczema or digestive symptoms that a provider wants to investigate. Because sensitization and clinical allergy are not the same thing, a qualified healthcare provider should interpret results with your history.
