About the HLA DR Antigens

The HLA DR Antigens is an individual blood test offered at our private clinic in London. A edta blood is collected by a registered nurse during an appointment lasting approximately 20 minutes. Results are typically available within 2 weeks and are delivered securely via email.

Allergy blood testing measures levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in the blood. IgE is a type of antibody produced by the immune system in response to substances it identifies as potentially harmful, known as allergens. When the body encounters an allergen, it may produce specific IgE antibodies targeted to that substance. Elevated total IgE levels can suggest an allergic tendency, while specific IgE tests measure antibodies to individual allergens such as foods, pollen, dust mites, or animal dander. Blood-based allergy testing provides a measured value that can be interpreted alongside clinical symptoms by a qualified healthcare professional.

Who May Consider This Test

The HLA DR Antigens may be relevant for a range of individuals. The following are common reasons people choose to have this test:

  • Individuals experiencing symptoms they suspect may be allergy-related
  • Those with a history of allergic reactions
  • People with eczema, asthma, or hay fever seeking to identify triggers
  • Parents seeking allergy assessment for children over 16
  • Anyone who wishes to test for specific food or environmental allergens
