Molecular Allergy Component Testing

This video is intended for US visitors.

Molecular level diagnostic testing represents an exciting advancement in the understanding of the allergen source causing symptoms and the potential severity of the patient's symptoms. The testing allows for differentiation of whether or not allergic symptoms are caused by a primary, species specific allergen component or due to cross-reactivity to a protein found in a variety of allergen sources. This contributes to a more exact diagnosis, enables a more accurate disease prognosis in terms of tolerance development or risk assessment leading to an improved patient management. Molecular Allergy makes it possible to:
- assess the clinical risk for reaction
- explain symptoms due to cross-reactivity
- identify the right patients for specific immunotherapy
