About Scallop Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Apache Junction

The Scallop Allergy Profile is a blood test that detects IgE antibodies directed against scallop allergens.

IgE antibodies are produced by the immune system when it identifies a substance as a threat. In the case of a scallop allergy, these antibodies bind to proteins in scallops and can trigger symptoms that range from mild to severe.

The test uses a blood sample to measure the level of scallop-specific IgE. Results are reported as a numerical value that indicates the likelihood and potential intensity of an allergic response to scallops.

This profile is typically ordered when a scallop allergy is suspected based on symptoms after eating or handling scallops, or when a healthcare provider wants to confirm or rule out sensitization. It does not diagnose other types of shellfish allergy, such as those to shrimp or crab, unless those specific allergens are also tested.
