Hazelnuts, also called filberts, are tree nuts that can trigger immune reactions in sensitive individuals. This test measures specific IgE antibodies in the blood to help identify an allergy to hazelnut proteins.

About Hazelnut (Filbert) Allergy Test | Nuts in Normal

An allergy to hazelnut is an immune response to proteins found in the nut.

When someone with a hazelnut allergy is exposed to the nut, the immune system mistakenly identifies its proteins as harmful and produces immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies. These antibodies bind to cells and trigger the release of chemicals like histamine, which cause allergy symptoms.

Symptoms of a hazelnut allergy can range from mild to severe and may include itching, hives, swelling, stomach upset, difficulty breathing, or anaphylaxis. Because hazelnut is a tree nut, reactions can sometimes be severe, and individuals with a known allergy should avoid hazelnuts and carry emergency medication as prescribed.

This blood test detects the presence of hazelnut-specific IgE antibodies. A positive result indicates sensitization to hazelnut proteins, but it does not by itself diagnose a clinical allergy. Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of symptoms and medical history.
