Lycopersicon lycopersicum Ab.IgE

This test detects IgE antibodies against tomato proteins in your blood. A positive result suggests your immune system reacts to tomatoes, potentially causing allergic symptoms. Tomato allergies are often associated with birch pollen allergy (oral allergy syndrome), where raw tomatoes trigger itching or swelling of the mouth and lips. Cooked tomatoes are usually tolerated better. This test helps distinguish true tomato allergy from pollen-related reactions and guides dietary choices.
