What this test is

This is a blood test that measures immunoglobulin E, or IgE, directed against green pea proteins. It is used to look for a possible allergy to green peas, which are legumes related to lentils, beans, and peanuts. The test is one piece of information and is interpreted alongside your history and other findings.

What it measures

  • Green pea specific IgE — Reflects the amount of allergic antibody directed against green pea proteins in the blood.
  • Total IgE — Sometimes measured as a general indicator of allergic tendency, though it is not specific to green pea.
  • Other legume specific IgE — May be measured alongside to check for reactions to related foods such as lentil, chickpea, or peanut.

What the test involves

A sample of blood is collected, usually from a vein in your arm, during a standard blood draw. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.

Why it is often ordered

A clinician may order this test when someone reports symptoms such as hives, itching, stomach upset, or breathing changes after eating green peas. It is often used along with other allergy tests to help clarify which foods may be involved.

Preparation

In general, no special preparation is needed for a blood allergy test, but follow the instructions provided by the collection lab. If you take medications, ask the lab or your clinician whether any changes are needed before the draw.

How results are reported

Results are reported as a level of specific IgE for green pea, often with a qualitative category such as negative, low, moderate, or high. Reference ranges and reporting formats vary by laboratory, so the lab that performs the test provides the range used for your result.

Before you go

  • Whether any medications should be paused before the blood draw.
  • How long results typically take at the lab performing the test.
  • Whether additional food allergy tests will be run on the same sample.
