Allergen, Individual-Food Mutton Ovis Spp. F88

The Allergen, Individual‑Food Mutton (Ovis spp.) F88 test detects specific IgE antibodies directed against mutton (sheep meat) to identify sensitisation and potential allergic risk following ingestion. The assay uses a blood sample collected at home or by a phlebotomist and is analysed by a validated immunoassay in an accredited laboratory to provide quantitative sIgE results. This information is important for diagnosing food allergy, guiding safe dietary choices, and reducing the risk of allergic reactions in daily life across Dubai and the UAE.

This test is recommended for people who experience immediate or reproducible symptoms after eating mutton—such as hives, swelling, respiratory symptoms, gastrointestinal distress, or anaphylaxis—or those with suspected cross‑reactivity to other sheep/goat products. Results are provided with laboratory reference ranges and interpretation guidance; however, clinical correlation with a physician or allergist is essential for definitive diagnosis and management, and supervised oral food challenge may be advised when necessary. Typical turnaround time for results and a clinician‑friendly report is provided with sample collection services available throughout Dubai and the UAE.
