Important before ordering
Allergy blood tests can help detect sensitisation to specific allergens, but results should always be interpreted together with your symptoms and clinical history.
If you need to test many allergens, consider the ALEX3 comprehensive allergy panel, which checks multiple allergens from one sample.
Choose a remote allergy test category
Browse remote allergy blood tests by category. Choose the allergens most relevant to your symptoms, exposure history or previous clinical advice.
Food allergy tests
Specific IgE food allergy blood tests may be useful when symptoms suggest an immediate-type allergic reaction, such as hives, swelling, wheezing, vomiting or rapid symptoms after eating a particular food.
Respiratory and environmental allergy tests
Respiratory allergy blood tests can help investigate sensitisation to common inhalant allergens such as pollen, house dust mite, mould, cat, dog and other animal allergens.
Food intolerance tests
Food intolerance is different from IgE-mediated food allergy. If your symptoms are delayed or mainly digestive, please read the test information carefully before ordering.
Frequently asked questions
How many allergens can I test with one remote kit?
One remote testing kit allows testing for up to 3 individual allergens.
Is this the same as a skin prick test?
No. This is a laboratory blood test that measures allergen-specific IgE antibodies. Skin prick testing is performed in clinic.
Can a blood test diagnose allergy on its own?
A positive result shows sensitisation, but this does not always mean you have a clinical allergy. Results should be interpreted alongside symptoms and medical history.
What if I need more than 3 allergens?
If you need broader testing, the ALEX3 comprehensive allergy panel may be more suitable because it covers many allergens from one sample.
