Description
Intended Use
Peanut Allergy Test is a rapid test for the qualitative determination of Peanut specific Immunoglobulin E (sIgE) in human serum, plasma or whole blood.
Peanut Allergy Test, in conjunction with other clinical observations, is intended to identify the patient whose allergic symptoms may be mediated by Peanut-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) Type I hypersensitivity.
Introduction
Allergy is a common health problem, affecting approximately 20-25% of people with immediate-type hypersensitivity reactions that manifest in the form of rhinitis, urticaria, dermatitis, gastrointestinal illness, wheezing and rarely anaphylactic shock. The term allergy is often used for type I hypersensitivity reactions (immediate type reactions), whose symptoms generally occur within 30-60 minutes after contact with the allergen.
Peanut allergy is a type of food allergy due to peanuts. It is different from nut allergies. It is a type one hypersensitivity reaction to dietary substances from peanuts that causes an overreaction of the immune system. It is recognized as one of the most severe food allergies due to its prevalence, persistency and potential severity of allergic reaction.
