Pine nuts, or pignoles, are the edible seeds of certain pine trees, and despite the name they are not true tree nuts in the botanical sense. Because they are seeds, a person can react to pine nuts without reacting to almonds, walnuts, or other tree nuts, and vice versa.
Allergic reactions to pine nuts are typically driven by IgE antibodies that recognize specific proteins in the seed. Symptoms can include itching or tingling in the mouth, hives, swelling, stomach upset, or more serious breathing difficulty. Reactions vary widely, and the amount needed to trigger symptoms differs from person to person.
This test detects pine nut-specific IgE in the blood. A positive result suggests sensitization to pine nut proteins, while a negative result makes an IgE-mediated allergy less likely. Results are interpreted alongside a person's history and symptoms, since sensitization and clinical allergy are not always the same thing.
