The Shellfish Allergy Test - Crab, Shrimp, Clam, Lobster Profile measures specific IgE antibodies against four frequently consumed shellfish, helping to clarify which proteins trigger an immune response.

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

Specific IgE blood testing offers a standardized way to assess sensitization to individual shellfish species.

The panel quantifies IgE antibodies directed against crab, shrimp, clam, and lobster. Each allergen is reported separately, so results can show a reaction to a single species or to several.

Shellfish are divided into crustaceans (such as shrimp, crab, and lobster) and mollusks (such as clams). Allergies to crustaceans are more common, but mollusk sensitivity is well documented and can be equally serious.

A positive IgE result indicates sensitization, not necessarily a clinical allergy. Diagnosis depends on the combination of history, symptoms, and test findings, which a qualified clinician interprets.
