Concerned that you or someone you know may be allergic to red meat? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Alpha Gal Test in Johnson City, TN. This test measures IgE antibodies to galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose (alpha-gal) to help determine if a person may have an allergy to red meat. Alpha-gal is a carbohydrate molecule found in most red meat, including beef, pork, and lamb. While some experience this allergy when consuming red meat, others develop an alpha-gal allergy after being bitten by ticks that carry the protein in their saliva. People with this allergy may also have a reaction to certain types of medication which also contain alpha-gal.

Allergy testing measures IgE antibodies to determine the severity of an allergy. Antibodies are created by the immune system to repel allergens. If you suspect a particular meat allergy, individual testing is available for Beef, Chicken, Lamb and Pork. The Meat Allergy Test includes beef, chicken and pork. The Alpha Gal Panel includes allergy testing for alpha-gal, beef, pork and lamb.
