Allergen, Individual-Grass pollen Timothy Grass Ghass (Phleum Pratense) G6

The Allergen, Individual-Grass Pollen Timothy Grass Ghass (Phleum Pratense) G6 test is a targeted laboratory assay that detects specific IgE antibodies to Timothy grass (Phleum pratense), a common grass pollen allergen. The service uses a small blood sample collected at home or by a certified phlebotomist, with quantitative laboratory analysis and clinical interpretation provided in the report. Results help confirm sensitisation to Timothy grass and distinguish it from other seasonal allergens, supporting accurate diagnosis and personalised management plans.

This test is particularly useful for people experiencing seasonal allergic rhinitis, conjunctivitis, or asthma symptoms during grass pollen season in Dubai and the UAE, and for patients being considered for allergen immunotherapy. Results can guide clinicians on treatment choices—such as targeted antihistamines, nasal therapies, or referral for immunotherapy—and help residents plan symptom prevention during peak pollen months.

• Phleum pratense (Timothy grass) specific IgE (sIgE)
• sIgE concentration (kUA/L) — quantitative result
• Allergen component markers (e.g., Phl p 1, Phl p 5) when available
• Result classification (Negative / Positive with sensitisation class 0–6)

• Seasonal nasal congestion, sneezing or itchy/watery eyes during grass pollen season
• Recurrent or poorly controlled allergic asthma with suspected pollen trigger
• Before initiating allergen-specific immunotherapy or desensitisation
• When skin testing is not possible or contraindicated
• To differentiate grass pollen sensitisation from other seasonal allergens

• Accurate identification of sensitisation to Timothy grass (Phleum pratense)
• Quantitative results to track severity and guide treatment decisions
• At‑home sample collection with professional laboratory analysis
