The only accredited laboratory test for chronic spontanous urticaria (CSU) using the serum-induced basophil histamine release assay (s-BHRA / HR-Urticaria Test)
RefLab is a private Danish laboratory with extensive expertise in allergy and chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) diagnostics. We serve hospitals, allergy/immunology specialists and private entities with our unique test
basophil histamine release assay (BHRA).
We offer two variants of the BHRA:
Allergen-induced (a-BHRA) for allergy patients. This assay is also known as HR-Test.
Serum-induced BHRA (s-BHRA) for patients with CSU. This assay is also known as HR-Urticaria Test.
RefLab offers pre-clinical contract research services to commercial and academic partners using our exclusive human ex vivo skin model with histamine release as readout.
This state-of-the-art and highly translational human immune model enables us to offer prediction of first in-man immune or adverse immune responses (e.g. pseudoallergic effects) for new therapeutics.
We can also investigate dermal drug delivery, hypersensitivity and perform metabolism studies.
