Know More About Allergen, Individual-Food Lentil Masoor Dal (Lens Esculenta) F235
The Allergen, Individual-Food Lentil Masoor Dal (Lens Esculenta) F235 is an at‑home laboratory test that detects sensitization to masoor lentil by measuring allergen‑specific IgE antibodies in a blood sample. The sample is collected by a trained phlebotomist at your Dubai residence and analysed using validated immunoassay methods to provide objective evidence of IgE‑mediated allergy to Lens esculenta. This test is important because lentils are a common dietary pulse in UAE and the region; identifying sensitization can prevent recurrent allergic reactions and guide safe dietary choices.
This test is recommended for individuals who experience immediate allergic symptoms (hives, throat tightness, vomiting, wheeze, or anaphylaxis) after eating lentils, for people with unexplained allergic reactions where lentils are a suspected trigger, and for clinicians evaluating food allergy in atopic patients. Results support targeted dietary advice, risk assessment for accidental exposure, and clinical decision‑making (for example, whether to recommend strict avoidance, carry emergency medication, or refer for specialist care). Results and follow‑up guidance are suitable for residents across Dubai and the UAE.
