What it measures
- Salt grass-specific IgE — An antibody tied to allergic reactions; higher levels can suggest sensitivity to salt grass pollen.
- Total IgE — A general measure of allergic antibody in the blood, sometimes included for context.
- Other grass-specific IgE — Checks for reactions to related grasses, since allergies often overlap.
- Seasonal allergen panel — May include tree, weed, and mold markers to help narrow down triggers.
Preparation

Results are reported as antibody levels, often with a reference range or class score. A clinician interprets them alongside your symptoms and history, since a positive result alone does not confirm an allergy.
