What this test is

This test measures specific IgE antibodies in your blood that react to sheep epithelium, a protein found in sheep skin and wool. It is one part of a broader allergy evaluation and does not diagnose an allergy on its own.

What it measures

  • Sheep epithelium-specific IgE — Reflects the level of IgE antibodies that bind to sheep skin and wool proteins.
  • Total IgE (if included) — May be reported as a general measure of allergic immune activity, though it is not specific to sheep.

What the test involves

A healthcare professional collects a small blood sample, usually from a vein in your arm, using 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 allergy-like symptoms after contact with sheep, wool, or products containing sheep-derived materials. It is typically used alongside a medical history and other tests to help identify possible triggers.

Preparation

Your preparation depends on the collection site and your clinician's instructions. Always follow the specific directions provided by the laboratory performing your blood draw.

How results are reported

Results are reported as a numerical level of specific IgE antibodies, often alongside a qualitative category such as negative or positive. Reference ranges and reporting formats vary by laboratory, so your results should be interpreted in the context of your symptoms and medical history.

Before you go

  • Whether any medications you take could affect the test results
  • If fasting or other special preparation is required for your blood draw
  • How and when you will receive your test results
