Children’s Allergy Profile Blood Test Clinic Details
Children’s Allergy Profile Blood Test Clinic, done on-site by appointment or walk-in. It detects biomarkers for 29 different ones.
29-in-1 biomarkers include:
- Immunoglobulin E (IgE), which indicates antibody levels.
- Cat
- Dog
- Horse
- Codfish
- Rice
- Birch
- Soybean
- Peanut
- Hazelnut
- Mugwort
- Carrot
- Potato
- Apple
- Egg white
- Yolk
- Cow’s milk
- Timothy grass
- Cultivated rye
- Wheat flour
- Alternaria alternata
- Aspergillus fumigatus
- Cladosporium herbarum
- nBos d6 BSA
- nBos d8 Casein
- nBos d5 Beta-lactoglobulin
- nBos d4 Alpha-lactalbumin
- Dermatophagoides farinae
- Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus
They are caused by rejection of a substance produced by an animal, plant, food product. The allergen, which is seen as a harmful substance, causes the immune system to overreact by producing antibodies.
What are the reasons to get your child examined?
Sneezing or skin rashes may indicate that your Child has a reaction towards an allergen. Also, consider if they are on antihistamines presently.
Why should you investigate with us?
- Direct laboratory prices and support.
- Easy appointments.
- Fast results and prescriptions for your Children.
- CE-certified sensitive PCR laboratory equipment for accurate tests.
- WhatsApp support during business hours.

Story: Is a living with a Child in this condition a smart idea?
When Cohabitation Becomes a Benefit to Health
We frequently hear about allergies, infections, and pollution. Fear of keeping in close proximity to pets. It is evident that dogs, cats, and other animals are germ carriers. The good news is that the vast majority are genetically incompatible with humans, while others can have unanticipated consequences. However, a single thing is for certain: “Living with animals from an early age can lead to a strengthening of the immune system and a reduction in cases” .
This is proven.
We invited Professor Mario Di Gioacchino, president of the Italian Child Society of Allergology, Asthma, and Clinical Immunology, to shed some light on the matter following the publication of the most recent scientific research.
A study presented at the previous European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases in Copenhagen suggested that dogs and cats could transmit drug-resistant microbes to people, accidentally worsening our reaction to antibiotic treatments. A type of shield, this time unfavorable, discovered in a number of persons hospitalized specifically due to the ineffectiveness of antibiotics against an illness.
A Japanese study.
According to a study published in Plos, dogs are a good immune system workout, so much so that those born into homes with animals, who are in frequent touch with them even during pregnancy, have a lower prevalence of food allergies. Dogs, in particular, appear to lessen difficulties with eggs, milk, and nuts more than cats, which are associated to wheat and soy, whereas hamsters increase allergies to nuts.
Professor, how is it possible that they provide humans with “food protection”?
“First and foremost, it is important to understand that they are more likely than adults to recover from a food allergy. This is because their body is more likely to develop a tolerance. All of this is feasible because the gut microbiota contains regulatory T cells, which quiet and hence restrict the immune response. Their immune defenses are still developing, making this process easier.
Recent studies.
More research has demonstrated that, contrary to popular belief, early weaning is more effective in children with allergies since it minimizes the chance of hypersensitivity. However, the Japanese study was able to observe this type of protection in the context of early exposure but not cause-and-effect. This demonstrates that “contamination” can provide epidemiological benefits due to the development of immunological tolerance at a young age, possibly even during pregnancy.
What else can we say about fur?
“The concept is exactly the same: only early exposure to antigens allows us to establish tolerance and so avoid developing one. It is absolutely false that you must keep them away from your home if you have an atopic child. In fact, you must do the opposite: only by coming into contact with the proteins produced by the sebaceous and salivary glands. Those, on the other hand, who are reared under a glass bell develop a less efficient immune system and are more prone.”
Why is the number increasing?
“It is estimated that by 2035, 50% of Italians would have at least one. There has been a significant increase over the last two decades, and the responsibility falls solely on our shoulders. Environmental pollution is undoubtedly a concern, since many chemicals act as immuno regulators, polarizing us and causing allergies. The other issue is the misuse of sanitizers. The fact that we no longer live in contact with nature, but rather in very clean and sanitized residential situations, has led us to increasingly avoid exposures that used to build our immune system, leaving us more prone.”
What can you say instead regarding antibiotic resistance?
“They change our microbiota, in our intestine. This can have both favorable and negative effects, such as tolerance and medicine resistance. Although the risk is limited, they can act as reservoirs for multidrug-resistant pathogens. If our microbiota weren’t already resistant, any antibiotic we took would entirely eradicate it, but thankfully, this is not the case.
Unfortunately, there is no effective measure of prophylaxis in this regard, as encountering antibiotic-resistant bacteria is always conceivable, even if you do not have a pet.”
All warm-blooded animals, however, can potentially cause allergic reactions in humans. No dog or cat breed is less “allergenic” than another. In fact, horses (as well as cattle and pigs) carry allergens, and simply riding or being near an equine can cause risks.
Protein causes can be found in their fur, dead skin flakes, urine, and saliva.To lessen the number in your home’s air, you can try:
Install a HEPA filter in the house
Avoid making touch and always wash your hands after any interaction.
Wash your pet on a regular basis.
