What this test is

This test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood that react to proteins found in black tea. It is used to help evaluate whether a person's symptoms may be related to an allergy to black tea.

What it measures

  • Specific IgE to black tea — Reflects the level of allergic antibodies directed against black tea proteins.
  • Total IgE (if included) — May provide a general measure of allergic tendency, though it is not specific to black tea.

What the test involves

A healthcare professional collects a small blood sample, usually from a vein in your arm. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.
