ALEX3 Molecular Allergen Array, Macroarray Allergen Test, MADX Allergy Test
72 hours
Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)
< 0.3 kUA/L
The ALEX 3 Molecular Allergen Array is an enhanced version of the previous test (ALEX )2, expanding the panel to 300 allergens (previously 285) with additional unique molecular markers and improved Cross-reactive Carbohydrate Determinant (CCD) blocking for greater diagnostic accuracy.
Accredited NRL Laboratory
3 times per week
ALEX is a multiplex allergy test that measures IgE antibodies to a broad panel of allergen extracts and molecular components. It provides a comprehensive profile of a patient's allergic sensitizations, improving diagnosis and enabling personalized allergy therapy.
Serum or Plasma
1 mL
Serum (SST; Gold Top or plain serum; Red Top) - Preferred or Lithium Heparin Plasma (Green Top) - acceptable
No special preparation is required for this test. You may eat, drink, and take your medications as normal, unless instructed otherwise by your healthcare provider.
