The 88 Antigen Environmental Allergy IgE Test is a simple blood test that checks your immune response to many common indoor and outdoor allergens. It is also called an Environmental Allergen IgE panel, 88 Allergen IgE panel, or specific IgE blood test. If your doctor wants a broad look at triggers like pollen, dust mites, and pet dander, you can book at participating labs on LabFinder.
This test, sometimes called an 88 Antigen Allergy Panel IgE or aeroallergen specific IgE panel, measures IgE antibodies in your blood to a wide set of environmental items. Higher IgE to a specific item suggests your body is reacting to that allergen.
Common reasons: ongoing sneezing, stuffy or runny nose, or itchy eyes during certain seasons, symptoms at home or work that improve when away, suspected pet, dust, or mold triggers, asthma that may worsen with allergens, or when skin testing is not a good option. Your doctor may order this to help guide allergy care.
You will check in, confirm your order, and have a small blood sample taken from your arm. A tourniquet is applied, the area is cleaned, and a quick draw is done. Most visits take about 10 to 25 minutes from check in to wrap up. You can leave right after the draw.
Yes, this is a quick, routine blood draw and is considered very safe. You might feel a quick pinch, notice a small bruise, or feel a little lightheaded for a moment afterward, but those effects usually fade quickly. Be sure to tell the staff if you take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, or if you have fainted during blood draws before. They will take extra care to keep you comfortable.
No special diet for most people: you can eat and drink as usual unless your doctor says otherwise. Bring the basics: photo ID, insurance card, and the lab order. Stay hydrated: drinking water can make the draw easier. Do not stop medicines on your own: some drugs affect skin tests, but most do not change blood IgE; follow your doctor’s advice. Wear short sleeves: it helps with a smooth draw. Always follow any instructions from your doctor or the lab.
Seasonal allergies such as hay fever, indoor allergies to dust mites, pet dander, or molds, allergic asthma, allergic conjunctivitis, and eczema flares linked to allergens. Results need context. Your doctor will review them with your history and symptoms before planning next steps.
You can compare locations, see time slots, and book online at participating labs. It is easy to search for a convenient location in your area or by city or ZIP. Coverage varies by plan and provider, so check your benefits or ask the lab when you book. Results timing: many labs post results within a few business days, but timing can vary by location.
