(Cat dander+Cow dander+Dog dander+Horse dander) Ab.IgE.RAST class
Detects immune antibodies (IgE) that react to dander proteins from cats, cows, dogs, and/or horses.
Why This Biomarker Matters
A positive result identifies animal allergies, critical for choosing appropriate pets and managing symptoms through avoidance or medication.
Overview
This test detects IgE antibodies against dander from multiple animals—cats, cows, dogs, and horses. Animal dander allergies are common and can cause symptoms ranging from mild (sneezing, itchy eyes) to severe (asthma attacks, anaphylaxis). A positive result on this panel test indicates sensitivity to one or more of these animals. Further testing may pinpoint which specific animal(s) trigger your allergies, helping you make informed decisions about pet ownership or occupational exposure.
