Morus alba Ab.IgE
Detects IgE antibodies in your blood that react to white mulberry tree pollen.
Why This Biomarker Matters
A positive result confirms a mulberry pollen allergy, helping you prepare for seasonal symptoms. This guides timing of allergy medications and avoidance strategies during pollination periods.
Overview
This test detects IgE antibodies to Morus alba (white mulberry), a tree native to Asia that is now common in many regions worldwide. White mulberry pollen is a significant allergen, particularly in spring and early summer. A positive result indicates your immune system may react to mulberry pollen, causing allergic symptoms such as rhinitis, itchy eyes, and throat irritation. This test helps identify this specific tree pollen allergy and is useful in regions where white mulberry is prevalent.
