Shellfish allergy is one of the most common food allergies in adults, and reactions can range from mild itching to severe, life-threatening symptoms. This profile measures specific IgE antibodies against four frequently consumed shellfish: crab, shrimp, clam, and lobster.

About Shellfish Allergy Test - Crab, Shrimp, Clam, Lobster in Galt

The Shellfish Allergy Test - Crab, Shrimp, Clam, Lobster Profile is a blood-based panel that evaluates sensitization to four distinct shellfish allergens.

The panel uses a single blood sample to quantify IgE antibodies directed against crab, shrimp, clam, and lobster. Elevated specific IgE levels indicate that the immune system has produced antibodies to proteins found in these shellfish, which is a hallmark of allergic sensitization.

Shellfish allergies are often grouped into crustaceans (such as shrimp, crab, and lobster) and mollusks (such as clams). Because reactions can occur to one or more types, testing several species helps clarify which shellfish may be safe and which should be avoided.

Results are reported for each allergen individually, allowing a clinician to interpret the pattern of sensitization alongside a person's history of symptoms. As with all allergy testing, results should be reviewed by a qualified healthcare professional and are not a substitute for a clinical diagnosis.
