Chymopapain Allergy Test

This IgE antibody allergy test uses a blood sample to determine if you are allergic to Chymopapain. Modes of sensitization to Chymopapain include papaya in any form, pineapple, yogurts, beverages containing exotic fruits, beer, Coca-Cola, meat tenderizer, digestive aids, ENT solutions, anti-inflammatory drugs, contact lens cleaning solutions, detergents, and ointments.

Chymopapain is used to treat herniated disks through chemonucleolysis. A typical product for chemonucleolysis is Chymodiactin.

Individuals with an allergy to chymopapain are often also allergic to papayas.

Traditional allergy tests utilize the Skin Prick method (also known as a Puncture or Scratch test) to determine whether an allergic reaction will occur by inserting possible triggers into your skin using a needle prick. If you are allergic to the substance, you are forced to suffer through your body's reaction to the allergen. HealthLabs.com offers an easier, virtually pain-free blood test to determine the allergen status of substances without the irritation of traditional skin prick tests.

• No fasting necessary
