Stachybotrys Chartarum Atra Blood Test (Labcorp)
This test measures IgE antibodies to Stachybotrys Chartarum/Atra, sometimes called Black Mold, a type of mold which is often found in buildings with water damage. Allergy testing can help determine how severe a reaction a person may have if they are exposed to this common form of mold. Symptoms of an allergic reaction usually include skin irritation, red itchy eyes, wheezing, and stuffy nose. People with severe allergies or conditions such as asthma may have more serious symptoms such as shortness of breath or fever. People with mold allergies should take care to avoid conditions which can cause mold growth in the home such as leaks, flooding, excess humidity, and condensation and remove materials with mold growth.
