Imutest Limited
Imutest has developed and markets
a range of point-of-care/self-test kits
for allergy which cover the most
common environmental and food
allergens.These offer simple-to-do
tests using a small finger prick sam-
ple of blood with results in 30 mins
… results with Imutest correlate
very well with results using the ‘gold-standard’ laboratory IgE method
(Phadia’s ImmunoCAP).
When you know what is causing your allergy symptoms, you can then
take the necessary steps (medication and/or avoidance measures) to
reduce your exposure to the offending allergen.
Imutest allergy test kits have CE Mark approval for self-testing, so
they can either be purchased by the patient for testing themselves in
the privacy of their own home, or can be used by a healthcare profes-
sional (e.g. private doctor, retail pharmacist, nutritionist, homeopath,
etc) as part of a service to the patient in a non-laboratory setting.
Imutest kits offer the following features:
• easy to perform
• require just 50ul blood sample from finger prick
• reliable results available within 30 mins
• based on a patented technology
