Quick answer
The Lime Allergy Test detects IgE antibodies against proteins in lime. Lime is a citrus fruit used in drinks, sauces, and marinades. Citrus allergy is uncommon, but reactions can occur after eating the fruit, drinking juice, or handling the peel. Symptoms may include oral itching, hives, or skin irritation, and some people react because of cross-reactive proteins shared with pollen. The test helps assess whether sensitization to lime is present.
What this test measures
Lime allergy involves an immune response to proteins in the fruit, juice, or peel. Limes are related to lemon, orange, and other citrus fruits, which contain several potential allergens. Skin contact with peel oils can also cause contact dermatitis, and some people notice irritation when squeezing or zesting the fruit.
The test measures specific IgE antibodies to lime in a blood sample. A detectable level indicates sensitization, which may or may not be accompanied by symptoms. Results are often interpreted alongside other citrus tests and the clinical history, together with the pattern of symptoms after exposure.
Testing may be considered when someone reports itching, tingling, hives, or swelling after consuming or handling lime, or when a clinician is evaluating possible pollen-related cross-reactions. A qualified healthcare provider should interpret the result and advise on management and whether other citrus fruits need testing.
