What this test is

This test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood that are associated with an allergic reaction to cherry proteins. It is typically used alongside a clinical history to help evaluate suspected fruit allergies.

What it measures

  • Cherry-specific IgE — Reflects the level of antibodies that may be associated with an allergic response to cherry proteins.
  • Total IgE — Sometimes measured to provide context, though it is not specific to cherry allergy.

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.

Why it is often ordered

A clinician may order this test when a person reports symptoms such as itching, hives, or swelling after eating cherries. It can help determine whether an immune response to cherry proteins is likely.

Preparation

No special preparation is usually required, but follow the instructions provided by the collection laboratory. They will let you know if any medications or foods should be avoided before the draw.

How results are reported

Results are reported as a numerical value that indicates the level of specific IgE antibodies, and the laboratory provides a reference range for interpretation. Reference ranges can vary between laboratories, so your clinician will interpret your result in the context of your symptoms and history.

Before you go

  • Whether any medications you take could affect the test results.
  • If there are any dietary restrictions before the blood draw.
  • How and when you will receive your test results.
