We offer tests for 2
different kinds of allergy:
1) FOOD
allergy tests:
GLUTEN ALLERGY
Celiac disease is a serious, lifelong,
gastrointestinal disorder due to permanent intolerance
to gluten (a complex mixture of storage proteins found
in wheat, barley and rye) causing a list of clinical
symptoms which can be avoided by only a gluten free
diet. Vaccines are under evaluation to reduce the
intolerance effects.

cassette.
2) DOMESTIC, RESPIRATORY allergy tests:
ALLERGY TESTS TO CAT
AND TO DOG
These tests are very useful in case of allergy
symptoms, to check at home or at the pharmacy
if the person, adult or child, is allergic to
domestic animals, mite or mildew.
The first 2 tests already available are
Allergy tests to
CAT and to Dog, particularly useful for
screening children even before purchasing a pet.
As allergy to animals happens also without any
direct contact with them, this test is
particularly useful to avoid any risk and, in
case of symptoms, allows a quick check.

commonest allergy to pet animals and up to 40%
of asthmatics are sensitive to cats.
The cat allergen is much more
likely to cause sensitisation than that of the
dog.
This specific, easy to use,
immuno-chromatographic test detects high levels
of IgE specific Ab to cat dander and skin cells

minutes.

Dog allergy is the second commonest allergy to
pet animals.

cat allergen, which is found in the dander from
sebaceous glands in the skin, the skin of dogs
does not appear to be a major source of Can f 1.
The major dog allergen is primarily found in dog
saliva.
This specific, easy to use, immuno
chromatographic test detects high levels of IgE
specific Ab to Can f 1 in finger tip blood
sample, at home, in just 15 minutes.
