Allergen Aspergillus Fumigatus Test (Fungus)

Aspergillus fumigatus is a common mould (a type of fungus) that lives indoors and outdoors. It's one of the most abundant Aspergillus species. Breathing in Aspergillus fumigatus spores or having contact with materials contaminated by this fungus can trigger an allergic reaction in some people. This is known as allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA).

ABPA is a complex allergic reaction that happens when your immune system overreacts to Aspergillus fumigatus mould spores. It causes inflammation and damage in your lungs' airways (bronchi). ABPA mainly affects people with asthma or cystic fibrosis. Around 2-15% of people with asthma are sensitized to Aspergillus fumigatus.

An Aspergillus fumigatus allergy test is done to check for allergic antibodies (immunoglobulin E or IgE) to Aspergillus fumigatus. This blood test helps diagnose an allergy or sensitivity to this common mould. It can also monitor the effectiveness of treatments for ABPA.

This Aspergillus fumigatus allergy test offered by our laboratory includes:

• Blood sample collection by certified phlebotomist
• Analysis at NABL & ISO certified lab
• Screening for IgE antibodies against Aspergillus fumigatus
• Quantitative reporting of antibody levels
• Sample pickup from home or visit our collection centres
• Digital report access within 48 hours

If you have chronic asthma, frequent chest infections, or cystic fibrosis, checking for Aspergillus sensitivity is important. Timely detection and proper care can prevent lung damage due to ABPA.
