The test measures the level of Prawn/Shrimp-specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in the blood. Elevated levels of Prawn/Shrimp IgE indicate an allergic reaction to shrimp.
This test is used to diagnose shrimp allergy, which is a type of food allergy. It helps identify individuals who may experience allergic symptoms such as hives, itching, swelling, difficulty breathing, or gastrointestinal issues after consuming shrimp.
