Allergen, Individual-Food Peanut Moongfali (Arachis Hypogaea) f13

The Allergen, Individual‑Food Peanut (Moongfali) (Arachis hypogaea) f13 test quantitatively measures specific IgE antibodies to peanut using a laboratory‑validated immunoassay performed on a small blood sample collected at home or in a clinic. This component‑resolved test helps identify IgE‑mediated sensitisation to peanut (Arachis hypogaea) and provides objective data to support diagnosis, risk assessment, and safe dietary guidance. Results assist clinicians in Dubai and the UAE in determining the likelihood of clinical allergy versus asymptomatic sensitisation and in planning further management such as avoidance strategies or supervised challenges.

This test is suitable for individuals who have experienced immediate allergic reactions after consuming peanuts, children with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis, those with a family history of food allergy, or anyone requiring clarification before introducing peanuts into a child’s diet. It provides fast, lab‑certified results that can reduce unnecessary food elimination and support timely clinical decisions; however, results should be interpreted alongside clinical history and, when necessary, by an allergist for confirmatory testing such as supervised oral food challenge. In Dubai, sample collection is arranged at home by trained phlebotomists and results are delivered securely to the requesting clinician or patient, with recommendations to seek specialist review for positive or uncertain findings.
