Allergy Core Blood Spot Test

Allergy Core from Health Beings Diagnostics measures allergen-specific IgE antibodies across 117 food and environmental allergens using multiplex IgE antibody analysis.

What is included

The panel includes foods such as dairy, eggs, grains, nuts, fruit and seafood, alongside environmental allergens including pets, mites, pollens, grasses, moulds and latex. It provides laboratory information to support investigation of suspected allergic sensitisation.

At-home sample collection

This listing is for the blood spot option: a finger-prick sample applied to the supplied specialist filter card. Activate the kit using its unique reference number, follow the supplied collection instructions and return your sample to the laboratory. The supplier specification states that kits include a prepaid return envelope.

Results

The supplier lists a laboratory turnaround of 3 working days. Results are provided as a PDF and should be reviewed alongside symptoms and medical history with an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Important information

IgE sensitisation does not necessarily confirm a clinical allergy or predict the severity of a reaction. A negative result does not exclude every possible allergy. This test does not replace medical assessment, particularly for suspected serious or rapid-onset reactions. Do not stop prescribed medication without advice from your healthcare professional.
