Why This Biomarker Matters

Identifying mare milk allergy helps you avoid allergic reactions and manage dietary choices. Knowing your allergy status is essential for safety, especially if you consume or consider consuming mare milk products.

Overview

This test detects IgE antibodies specific to mare (horse) milk, measuring your immune system's allergic response to this protein. IgE is an antibody your body produces when it identifies a substance as a threat, even if it's harmless. A positive result indicates a mare milk allergy, which can cause symptoms ranging from mild itching and swelling to severe anaphylaxis. This test is useful for diagnosing food allergies in people who consume mare milk products, which are popular in some cultures and alternative medicine practices.
