About Codfish Allergy Test | Fish Allergy in Richfield
This test uses a blood sample to assess sensitization to codfish, a commonly consumed white fish.
The assay detects and quantifies IgE antibodies directed against codfish proteins. IgE is the class of antibody most closely associated with immediate-type allergic reactions, so its presence can support the evaluation of a suspected fish allergy.
Codfish belongs to the group of finned fish, which is distinct from shellfish such as shrimp, crab, and lobster. A person may react to one type of fish and tolerate others, so results for cod do not automatically predict reactions to every fish species.
Results are reported as a quantitative IgE level and are interpreted alongside a person's history and physical findings. A qualified healthcare professional can explain what a given value means in an individual case.
