Allergen, Individual-Grass pollen Cultivated RyeGrass Secale Cereale G12

This at‑home lab test quantifies specific IgE antibodies to Ryegrass (Secale cereale, allergen component G12) to determine sensitization to cultivated ryegrass pollen. The assay uses a blood sample (capillary or venous) analysed by an accredited immunoassay to report specific IgE levels and sensitization class, helping clinicians correlate symptoms with exposure. For Dubai residents, results support targeted allergy management — including avoidance strategies, medication adjustments, or consideration of allergen immunotherapy — aligned with UAE clinical standards.

• Secale cereale (Ryegrass) — Specific IgE (G12)
• Specific IgE concentration (kU/L)
• Sensitization class / IgE interpretation (Class 0–6)
• Laboratory comment / Clinical correlation guidance

• Recurrent seasonal allergic rhinitis or sneezing during grass pollen season
• Persistent allergic conjunctivitis or itchy, watery eyes linked to outdoor exposure
• Unexplained asthma exacerbations with suspected pollen triggers
• Prior to initiating allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT)
• To clarify polysensitisation when multiple grass allergens are suspected

• Identifies Ryegrass-specific sensitisation to guide personalised treatment
• Helps clinicians decide on suitability for allergen immunotherapy
• Supports targeted avoidance and environmental control measures in Dubai
• Objective measurement to monitor changes over time or after treatment
• Convenient home sample collection with laboratory-standard reporting

• Small blood sample (finger‑prick or venous) collected at home by a licensed phlebotomist
• No fasting required; normal medications may generally be continued (inform clinician of immunotherapy or immunosuppressants)
• Provide recent clinical history of symptoms and current allergy medications for accurate interpretation
