Melon Allergy Test in Foster City, California

Same day and Affordable Melon Allergy Test, Locations Nationwide

Concerned that you or someone you know may have a melon allergy? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Melon Allergy Test in Foster City, CA. This test is used to determine if a person may have an allergic reaction to melons, a fruit belonging to the Cucurbitaceae or gourd family. Common melons include honeydew, muskmelon and cantaloupe. Allergy testing measures IgE antibodies to determine the severity of an allergy. These antibodies are proteins the immune system creates to repel allergens. The IgE antibodies trigger the release of histamine which causes the symptoms of an allergic reaction.

Someone with a melon allergy may also be allergic to other foods in the Cucurbitaceae family. This includes watermelons, squashes (zucchini), pumpkins and cucumbers. The proteins in melon are similar to these plants. This is called a cross-reactivity allergy. There is also a possible cross-reactivity allergy with Ragweed (common/short). We offer testing for these common allergens as individual tests. The Ragweed Related Allergy Test includes ragweed, watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew melon and banana.
