AEC test is done to measure the number of eosinophil counts in relation to the whole white blood cell.

An absolute eosinophil count (AEC) is a blood test. It measures the number of eosinophils. This test helps to detect allergic diseases, infections, and other medical conditions.

These come into action for are said to be linked with certain infections and allergic diseases. The eosinophils are produced and mature in the bone marrow. They usually take about 8 days to mature and then are moved to blood vessels.
The eosinophils have varied functions which include the physiological role in organ formation such as the development of the post-gestational mammary gland. Other functions include its movement in the areas of inflammation, trapping substances, killing cells, bactericidal, and anti-parasitic activity. It also helps the treatment of immediate allergic reactions and modulation of inflammatory responses.
