Pine nuts, sometimes called pignoles, are edible seeds harvested from certain pine species and used in pesto, salads, and baked goods. Although they are seeds rather than true tree nuts, they can still provoke allergic reactions in some people. This test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood to help identify sensitization to pine nut proteins.

About Pine Nut (Pignoles) Allergy Test | Seeds in Gresham

The Pine Nut Allergy Test evaluates IgE-mediated sensitivity to pine nut proteins using a blood sample.

Specific IgE antibodies are produced by the immune system when it identifies a substance as a threat. In the case of pine nut allergy, these antibodies bind to proteins found in the seed, and a blood test can detect their presence.

Pine nut allergy is uncommon but has been documented, with reactions ranging from mild oral itching to more severe systemic responses. Because pine nuts are seeds, they are distinct from peanuts and tree nuts, though cross-reactivity with other seeds or nuts is possible in some individuals.

Results from this test are reported as a quantitative IgE level and should be interpreted alongside a person's clinical history. A healthcare professional can explain what a positive or negative result means in the context of symptoms and other findings.
