What this test is

This test measures specific IgE antibodies in your blood that react to rabbit epithelium, which is the skin and tissue material that can trigger allergic responses. It is used to help identify an allergy to rabbits when symptoms such as sneezing, itching, or breathing changes occur around them.

What it measures

  • Rabbit epithelium-specific IgE — reflects allergic sensitization to rabbit skin and tissue proteins
  • Total IgE (if included) — reflects overall allergic antibody level, though it is not specific to rabbits
  • Other allergen-specific IgE (if panel) — may show sensitization to related or co-occurring allergens

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 you report symptoms that happen around rabbits or their bedding, and other causes have been considered. It can help support a diagnosis when used with your history and a physical exam.

Preparation

No special preparation is usually needed, but follow the collection lab's instructions. Tell the lab about any medications you take, as some may affect test results.

How results are reported

Results are reported as a numeric value with a reference range, and the lab may also note a class or category. Reference ranges vary by laboratory, so your results should be interpreted by your clinician in the context of your symptoms.

Before you go

  • Whether any medications you take could affect the test
  • How and when you will receive your results
  • Whether a follow-up appointment is needed to discuss results
