About test
What does ALLERGY PRAWN (BY ELISA) measure?
This test measures allergy-related IgE antibodies to prawn using an ELISA method. It may be used to help evaluate whether a person’s immune system shows sensitisation to prawn, particularly when a healthcare professional is assessing suspected food-related allergic reactions. Results should be interpreted alongside medical history and, when relevant, other allergy assessments, as a positive result does not by itself confirm clinical allergy.
