The histamine release test can be performed on 3 different standard plates:
- inhalation
- food
- dermatology plate
and on individual allergens chosen from RefLab’s standard allergen list, see below list.
It’s also possible to perform the histamine release test on non-standardized material, for example:
- environmental allergens
- occupational allergens
- drugs
- food
When testing on these different types of patient material, the material to be tested for has to be sent together with the blood sample.
