About the test
Allergen e2 denotes dog epithelium material. Testing this entry may form part of an investigation into symptoms occurring in connection with contact with the animal.
The marker measured and method must be clarified with the laboratory: the original name does not specify the antibody class. Even the presence of sensitisation does not, by itself, prove that this contact causes the symptoms or determine the severity of the reaction.
Why it is ordered
- Assess the laboratory marker for allergen e2 after clarifying the method.
- Compare the result with the history of symptoms upon contact with the animal.
How to prepare
Before taking the test, ask the laboratory about preparation and specimen collection requirements. Tell your doctor about medicines and recent treatment. Do not stop prescribed medicines on your own.
