Shellfish allergies are among the most common food allergies in adults, and reactions can range from mild itching to severe anaphylaxis. Because shellfish is a broad category that includes crustaceans and mollusks, identifying the specific trigger matters for both avoidance and safety planning. This panel measures IgE antibodies to four common shellfish: crab, shrimp, clam, and lobster.

About Shellfish Allergy Test - Crab, Shrimp, Clam, Lobster in Fremont

An IgE shellfish panel helps clarify which specific shellfish proteins may be driving symptoms.

The test uses a blood sample to measure immunoglobulin E, the antibody class associated with immediate allergic reactions. Each allergen in the panel—crab, shrimp, clam, and lobster—is tested separately, so results can show whether sensitization is broad across shellfish or limited to one or two types.

Shellfish allergens are often grouped into crustaceans (such as shrimp, crab, and lobster) and mollusks (such as clams). Reactions to one group do not always mean reactions to the other, and some people tolerate certain shellfish while reacting to others. Separate allergen results can help distinguish these patterns.

IgE testing reflects sensitization, which is not the same as a clinical allergy. A positive result indicates the immune system has produced specific IgE to that shellfish, but diagnosis depends on a clinician's review of symptoms, history, and sometimes additional evaluation. Results should be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional.
