Trichoderma Viride Antibody Test
A Trichoderma viride allergy test measures IgE antibodies against a common soil and indoor mold. It helps assess mold sensitization when respiratory, nasal, or skin symptoms persist in damp environments.

Quick answer
The Trichoderma viride allergy test uses a blood sample to measure immunoglobulin E antibodies against Trichoderma viride, a mold found in soil, decaying plant matter, and damp buildings. It is often included in mold allergy panels and is ordered when someone has persistent symptoms that may relate to moisture or mold exposure. The result shows whether sensitization is present and is interpreted with the person's history by a healthcare provider.
What this test measures
Trichoderma viride is a fast-growing mold commonly found in soil and on decaying vegetation. It can also colonize damp indoor materials such as wood, wallpaper, and drywall. When its spores become airborne, sensitive people may experience sneezing, nasal congestion, coughing, itchy eyes, or worsening asthma symptoms.
The test measures allergen-specific IgE in serum with a laboratory immunoassay, reporting a quantitative level and often a reactivity class for Trichoderma viride. Because molds share overlapping allergens, results are generally reviewed together with other mold markers in the same panel to build a complete picture.
A positive result shows the immune system has made antibodies against the mold, which indicates sensitization rather than proving that mold is causing current symptoms. Clinicians consider exposure, symptom timing, and other results. People with ongoing symptoms should discuss the findings with a qualified healthcare provider.
- Trichoderma viride-specific IgE antibodies
- Total serum IgE
- Quantitative allergen-specific IgE level
- IgE reactivity class for Trichoderma viride
- Cross-reactive mold and fungal allergens
- Related mold spore markers in the panel
Why people order this test
- Investigate persistent nasal or respiratory symptoms in damp spaces
- Assess mold sensitization within a broader allergy workup
- Review symptoms that worsen in moisture-damaged buildings
- Compare reactivity across multiple mold species
- Provide context before discussing environmental changes
- Follow up on asthma symptoms that may have a mold trigger
How to prepare
No fasting is required for this blood test. A sample is drawn from a vein, usually at the arm. Follow any specific instructions from the laboratory, particularly if the test is part of a larger allergy panel.
Understanding your results
Results are generally available within one to three business days. The report shows the specific IgE level and a reactivity class for Trichoderma viride. An elevated value suggests sensitization, and a healthcare provider can explain what the finding means for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Trichoderma viride?
It is a common mold that grows in soil and on decaying plant material. It can also grow indoors on damp surfaces and may trigger allergic symptoms in sensitive people.
How is the test performed?
A small blood sample is drawn and analyzed for IgE antibodies that react to Trichoderma viride.
Do I need to fast?
Fasting is not required for this test unless it is bundled with another panel that calls for it.
What does a positive result mean?
It means the immune system has produced antibodies against the mold, which indicates sensitization. Whether it causes symptoms depends on exposure and clinical history.
Can this mold be found indoors?
Yes. It can colonize damp building materials, so indoor exposure is possible in homes or workplaces with moisture problems.
