Clinical Information
This assay is used to detect allergen specific-IgE using the ImmunoCAP FEIA method. In vitro allergy testing is the primary testing mode for allergy diagnosis.

Method Description
The ImmunoCAP FEIA method uses as the solid phase a flexible, hydrophobic cellulosic polymer to which allergen has been covalently linked. The advantage of this system is that it has a very high antigen binding capacity when compared to other systems and it has minimal non-specific binding with high total IgE. Viracor Eurofins provides an optional low range calibrator at 0.1 kU/L and a 0/1 class. This test has been cleared or approved for diagnostic use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
