What it measures
- Chicken-specific IgE — Antibodies made in response to chicken proteins.

- Chicken serum albumin IgE — Response to a protein found in chicken meat and sometimes egg yolk.
- Chicken gamma-globulin IgE — Response to another chicken protein that may cause reactions.
Preparation

Results are reported as antibody levels, often graded from negative to high. A clinician interprets them alongside your symptoms and history, because a positive result alone does not always mean you have a true allergy.

Frequently asked questions
Does a positive result mean I am allergic to chicken?
Not always. It means your blood has antibodies that react to chicken proteins, but only a clinician can confirm whether you have a true allergy.
Do I need to stop eating chicken before the test?
No. The test measures antibodies already in your blood, so you do not need to change your diet beforehand unless your clinician says otherwise.
Can this test check for egg allergy too?
It focuses on chicken proteins. Egg allergy testing uses separate markers, so ask your clinician if you need both.
How long do results take?
Most results are ready in 1 to 3 business days, though timing can vary by lab.
