Anti-IgE Receptor Antibody

Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

IgE Receptor Remark:

In the presence of antibody to the FceR1, basophils degranulate resulting in the increased expression of a specific basophil marker. The expression of this marker is determined after incubation of susceptible donor basophils with serum from the patient.
