Bumble Bee Venom (Bombus terrestris) (i205) IgE

Laboratory: Quest Diagnostics
Test code: 38410
Specimen: Serum
Fasting: Not stated
LOINC: 102196-3, 6056-6
Turnaround: Set up: Mon-Sat

Laboratory assay overview

This test detects the presence of specific IgE against bumble bee venom. A positive test only indicates that a person is sensitized and potentially allergic to this allergen. A diagnosis of allergy requires clinical signs and symptoms that appear to be associated with exposure to the allergen in addition to the detection of markers of IgE sensitization [1]. More specific information about this allergen can be found on the following website: https://www.thermofisher.com/phadia/us/en/resources/allergen-encyclopedia.html Reference 1. Bernstein IL, et al. Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2008;100(3 Suppl 3):S1-S148.

Hymenoptera Venom Allergy (HVA) With Components Profile, II

Laboratory: Labcorp
Test code: 606895
Specimen: Serum
Fasting: Not stated
Turnaround: 4 - 6 days

Laboratory assay overview

This test supports the diagnosis of hymenoptera venom allergy (HVA) by detection of sIgE antibodies to whole venom extracts and individual allergenic venom proteins. Identifying sIgE responses to specific molecular targets with component resolved diagnostics (CRD) helps fine-tune the diagnosis by distinguishing species-specific, co-reactive, or cross-reactive sensitizations. An accurate diagnosis, in turn, facilitates treatment, including prescription of venom immunotherapy.1

We compile every detail above directly from named laboratory directories and published clinical studies. Laboratories calculate standard reference intervals from the statistical distribution of tested populations for a specific assay method and demographic group, rather than setting universal optimal targets.
