IgE Antibody Level, Allergy Blood Testing
IgE Antibody Level
What sample is needed for the IgE Antibody?
- A venous blood sample is needed to get the serum.
- Random sampling can be used.
- Analyze a fresh sample or store it at 4 °C for less than 72 hours.
- Avoid lipemic or hemolyzed samples.
What are the indications for IgE Antibody?
- It is done to diagnose an allergy.
- This is a blood test that is different from the skin test.
- It is indicated in patients where skin test is contraindicated.
What are the contraindications for IgE Antibody?
- If the patient reacts to the skin test for allergy.
- If patients have multiple sources of allergens.
How will you describe the pathophysiology of IgE Antibody?
- Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction where IgE type of antibody has a role.
- Where allergen (Antigen) produces IgE type of antibody.
- IgE values are age-dependent until adulthood.
- Elevated values of IgE are found in allergic disorders, such as atopic dermatitis, allergic asthma, and some parasitic infestations.
- The raised IgE value may be seen in some non-allergic conditions, so testing the IgE level is not specific to the allergy.
- While allergic patients may have a normal total IgE level.
IgE Antibody: IgE antibody structure
- Mast cells and Basophils have a receptor for the Fc portion of IgE.
IgE Antibody: Mast cell and basophil cell
- When IgE molecules form a bond over the surface of the mast cell or basophils, they release histamine and histamine-like substances.

IgE Antibody: Type 1 reaction and mast cells
Type 1 Hypersensitivity reaction mechanism
What is the radioallergosorbent test (RAST)?
- It was described in 1967 to detect the IgE antibody. Radioallergosorbent means to find the IgE-antibody initiated against the allergen.
- Principle:
- It is advised to measure IgE antibodies to specific antigens.
- In this test, a specific antigen is bound to a carrier substance and allowed to react with a specific IgE antibody.
- The amount of IgE antibody bound is estimated by adding radioactive anti-IgE antibodies.
The Radioallergosorbent Test (RAST) principle
- Now, quantify the labeled anti-IgE antibody attached to the IgE-antigen complex.
- Using the subcutaneous injection method, RAST correlates 80% to 85% with skin testing.
- Normal value:
- 0.10 kU/L to 100 kU/L
What are the stimulants for Type 1 Hypersensitivity reactions?
Various substances (allergin) can give rise to this Type 1 reaction like:
- Animal dandruff.
- Foods.
- Pollens.
- Dust.
- Molds.
- Insect venoms.
- Drugs. In medication, Penicillin is at the top.
- Environmental pollution.
- Some chronic infections include fungi and parasites.
- Others are cosmetics and chemicals.
- The total level of raised IgE is the diagnostic of an allergic reaction.
- It can be used to diagnose allergens because of the preparation of liquid allergen preparations available.

Hi Dr. Riaz,
My father in law is a asthma patient from last 30 years, His age is 59 years. Recently he started experiencing breathlessness while climbing stairs or doing some physical activity. Doctor advised to do IgE serum test (ECLIA) which came 779 IU/ml in report. What does this mean and how to approach for a possible treatment. Also let us know which specialist we should consult?
Good history. IgE level is raised, which indicates allergy (type 1 hypersensitivity). But your father-in-law needs an X-Ray chest and cardiologist consultation. If he has no heart problem, then consult a pulmonologist.
My age is 28, Total IgE 899 is it controllable.
Raised level of IgE indicates allergy (Type 1 hypersensitivity). You can be cured if you succeed in finding the cause of the allergy (allergin).
Hello my age is 26 and I have total IgE as 431 kunits/L is this high please?
Please see the link.
https://labpedia.net/ige-antibody-level-allergy-blood-testing-radioall/
Hello my age is 26 and total igE is 431 kunit L
IgE is raised; it indicates type 1 hypersensitivity reaction. It means you have allergy to foods or in the atmosphere. It would help if you found the allergin.
Apologies for a long message. Well, my grandson, aged 17 years, suffered from asthma since childhood and was usually treated with Ayurvedic / Herbal medicines. At 17, he was provisionally diagnosed with ABPA and had his first corticosteroid treatment this year, which brought the IgE level down from 3000 kUA/L (Start of treatment in March 2021) to 897 kUA/L (At the end of 16-week treatment). The bio-reference intervals mentioned in the subsequent IgE reports have been somewhat confusing, as summarized below:
19-09-2021 (FEIA): 690 kUA/L [Bio Ref. Interval: <64 kUA/L]; Dr Lal Path Labs
29-10-2021 (ECLIA): 128 IU/mL [Bio Ref. Interval 0-100 IU/mL]; Metropolis Healthcare Ltd.
13-12-2021 (CLIA): 649 IU/mL [Bio Ref. Interval <378 IU/mL]; Dr Lal Path Labs
We tried checking with various lab technicians as well as doctors, but nobody could provide a convincing response, which could help us make a consistent assessment of his health. So, we look forward to your advice on the matter.
Thanking you
There is no doubt that his IgE level is raised (indicating hypersensitivity type 1 reaction). Variation from different labs is not worrying me. I will advise sticking to one lab. You should consult a pulmonologist who can check his lung functions. Ideally, finding the allergin stimulates this reaction and avoids that will lead to a cure for him. Mostly these people are treated with steroids puff.
Thanks for the prompt response and advice sir. We have been taking measures to avoid exposure to Aspergillus and it seems to be working. He has been prescribed Foracort on SOS basis, which he has hardly ever required over the past nine months.
Thanks again for your selfless work. Wish good health to you and your family.
Thanks
I, Mohd. Hameed, age -64 years, as per test report , my IgE total level is 104.90 (IU/ML).Is it normal?
I am suffering from cold, sneezing & runny nose since 5 years. Please advise.
Your IgE level is the normal upper limit. But your sneezing, running nose suggest an allergy to cold. This is your good luck that you know, cold initiate sneezing and running nose. The best option for you is to avoid cold.
Sir, I, Mohd. Hameed, age -64 years, as per test report , my IgE total level is 104.90 (IU/ML).
I am suffering from cold, sneezing & runny nose since 5 years.
Sir, I would like to add that sneezing,runny nose and cold are being repeated in all seasons(summer,winter & rainy).Please advise.
Age of my son is 21 months, last 12 months he affected by breathing difficulties for 6 times. his IgE level is 94.2 IU/ml. What should i do?
Sir, age of my son is 21 months. Last 12 months he affected by breathing difficulties for 6 times. his IgE level is 94.2 IU/ml. What should i do?
According to age IgE, your son is raised, which shows allergy (Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction). You have to find the allergin. If he is taking only milk, then changing the type of milk may be helpful. Also, try to find an allergin in the house. Only that can help. If he has only 6 times breathing difficult, then definitely some allergin is present in your home, you have to keep an eye.
Dear Sir, he doesn’t take other milk or restaurant food rather than BM. Al over a day; he take’s 5-8 apples(partly eat), 2-3 oranges, 20-30 gram kismis(raisin), 5-8 pieces of keshaw nut, 50-100 gram grapes, two/ three time, he take’s only rice (khichuri 1 time). He normally like to eat meat especially liver, lung without rice.
He normally sleep at 10-11 pm and wake up after 9 am.
My house is well cleaned.
Is his food habit or sleeping habit relate to breathing difficulties?
Respected Sir, I, Mohd. Hameed, age -64 years, I got the test done again and found my IgE total level is 121 (IU/ML). What does it show?
I am suffering from cold, sneezing & runny nose since 5 years. Sir, I would like to add that sneezing,runny nose and cold are being repeated in all seasons (summer,winter & rainy). Please advise.
According to one of the sources, the IgE level is slightly above the normal range. IgE is raised in type 1 hypersensitivity reaction (allergy). If you can find out the allergin, avoiding that will cure this reaction. Otherwise, you will need medicines.
Sir enaku 2400 irukung sir enna pandrathu get sir my age 26
Please can you write this question in English or Hindi? I can not understand Tamil.
Sir, my husband age is 33. He has dry cough from many years. Ct scan finding came out as mediastinal lymphadenopathy. His Ace level is 147 and total ige level is 122 Iu/ml. Pls comment.
Why do they advise ACE level? He needs workup for the mediastinal lymphadenopathy. They can have either FNA (Fine needle aspiration) or biopsy. However, the mediastinal area is difficult to approach. Is this mass seen on XRay’s chest?. He needs to be seen by a thoracic surgeon and pulmonologist. What is his ESR?. If his ESR is raised, he needs to take care of the mediastinal lymphadenopathy. You can ask for a tuberculin test.
Sir ACE test has done to rule out sarcodiosis of swalloen lymph nodes.. but with ige level we are bit confused.
Sir my ige total 46.70 IU/ml
Please tell me your age because the IgE level changes with age. Anyhow, IgE is advised to find the allergy.
