IgE

IgE

IgE is predominantly produced in the lymph glands and the mucous membranes of the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems. IgE is linked to type I allergic reactions (medium oversensitivity) that are seen immediately after contact with the antigen. Antigens such as pollen, food, parasites and insect secretions cause the production of specific IgE molecules by B-cells, with the help of adjuvant T cells.

Fortress Diagnostics manufactures IgE reagents designed for CA 180/270/400 Furuno/Daytona systems.
