Allergen, Individual-Food Celery Apium Graveolens F85

The Allergen, Individual-Food Celery Apium Graveolens F85 is a home-sample blood test designed to detect specific IgE antibodies to celery (Apium graveolens). The assay measures serum-specific IgE to determine sensitisation to celery proteins and is analysed in UAE‑accredited laboratories to ensure accurate, clinically relevant results.

This test is useful for people who experience immediate allergic reactions after eating celery, have oral allergy syndrome, or have pollen allergies with possible cross-reactivity (for example birch-related pollen sensitisation). Results guide clinical decisions such as dietary elimination, emergency action planning, and referral for further confirmatory testing (e.g., supervised oral food challenge); results should be interpreted alongside clinical history by a qualified physician or allergist.

• Specific IgE — Celery (Apium graveolens)
• IgE Level (kU/L)
• Result Category (Class 0–6)
• Clinical Interpretation

• After immediate allergic reactions (hives, swelling, breathing difficulty) following celery ingestion
• When experiencing oral allergy symptoms (itching/tingling of mouth or throat) with raw celery
• If you have pollen allergies and suspect cross‑reactivity with celery
• Before instituting or stopping a celery elimination diet
• When planning further allergy evaluation (e.g., supervised food challenge or specialist referral)

• Convenient at‑home sample collection with professional handling
• Accurate specific IgE measurement processed in UAE‑certified labs
• Clear result categories to support clinical decision‑making
• Helps personalise dietary guidance and allergy action plans
• Facilitates timely referral to allergists or further testing if needed

• At‑home blood sample collection (capillary finger‑prick or venous draw by a trained phlebotomist)
• No fasting required prior to sample collection
• Inform the collector about current medications, ongoing immunotherapy, or recent allergic reactions
• Suitable for adults and children (parental/guardian consent required for minors)
