Measure specifc IgE antibodies using ImmunoCAP™ allergens, an essential tool to aid in the diagnosis of allergic conditions.
Supplier: Thermo Scientific™ 14437001
Description
Quantify specific IgE antibodies with ImmunoCAP™ Occupational Allergen Components down to the molecular level, essential tools to aid in the diagnosis of allergic conditions. IgE antibodies appear in human serum and plasma as a result of sensitization to a specific allergen. Measurement of circulating IgE antibodies provides an objective assessment of sensitization to an allergen at the molecular level. In general, low IgE antibody levels indicate a low probability of allergic disease, whereas high antibody levels to an allergen show, in general, a higher correlation with an allergic disease.

- Intra-assay CV (%) comparable to routine clinical chemistry immunoassays
- Excellent consistency over time, and between countries, systems, labs and persons measuring range from 0.1-100 kUA/L
- Serum and plasma (EDTA or heparin) samples from venous or capillary blood can be used
- Collect blood samples using standard procedures
- Keep specimens at room temperature (RT) for shipping purposes only
- Store at 2-8°C up to one week, otherwise store at -20°C
- Avoid repeated freezing and thawing
- Identify offending allergens
- Tailor advice to individual patients
- Indicate development of tolerance (food allergy, specific immunotherapy)
