Allergen, Individual-Tree pollen Birch Betula Verrucosa T3

The Allergen, Individual-Tree Pollen Birch (Betula verrucosa) T3 test detects and quantifies specific IgE antibodies to birch pollen using laboratory-grade immunoassays on a blood sample collected conveniently at home. The result indicates whether a patient is sensitised to Betula verrucosa and provides a measure of sensitisation intensity (reported in kU/L and sensitisation class), which helps clinicians differentiate true allergy from non-allergic symptoms.

This test is useful for diagnosing seasonal allergic rhinitis, pollen‑triggered asthma exacerbations, and oral allergy syndrome due to cross-reactivity with certain fruits and nuts. Results support targeted management in Dubai and across the UAE — including allergen avoidance advice, pharmacotherapy optimisation, and consideration of allergen immunotherapy where appropriate — and are provided with clinical interpretation suitable for local healthcare providers.

• Specific IgE — Birch (Betula verrucosa)
• Component: Bet v 1 (major birch allergen)
• Component: Bet v 2 (profilin, cross-reactive)
• IgE concentration (kU/L) and Sensitisation Class (0–6)

• Seasonal sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes during spring
• Asthma symptoms or wheeze that worsen in pollen season
• Oral allergy syndrome (itching/tingling in mouth after eating raw fruits/nuts)
• Before initiating allergen immunotherapy (SCIT/SLIT)
• Persistent suspected pollen allergy despite standard treatment

• At‑home sample collection with certified phlebotomist across Dubai and the UAE
• Laboratory‑grade specific IgE quantification for precise sensitisation assessment
• Component profile (Bet v 1 / Bet v 2) to identify cross-reactivity risks
• Supports personalised treatment planning, medication adjustments, and immunotherapy decisions
• Clear report with clinical interpretation suitable for UAE clinicians

• At‑home blood sample (capillary finger‑prick or venous) collected by a trained phlebotomist
• No fasting required; continue most medications but inform the collector about immunotherapy or biologic treatments
• Parental consent required for minors; ensure availability at your UAE location when booking
• Follow sample handling instructions and have the sample ready for scheduled pickup to preserve stability
