Order Hazel Nut Tree Allergy Test | Tree PollenThe Hazel Nut Tree Allergy Panel measures IgE antibodies in the blood to assess sensitization to hazel nut tree pollen.

About Hazel Nut Tree Allergy Test | Tree Pollen in Berkeley
Hazel trees are wind-pollinated and release pollen in seasonal cycles, which can contribute to allergic rhinitis and related symptoms in sensitized individuals.
The hazel nut tree, also known as Corylus, produces lightweight pollen that can travel significant distances in the air. For people with an IgE-mediated sensitivity, exposure to this pollen may prompt sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, and sometimes coughing or wheezing.
An allergy blood test detects specific IgE antibodies that bind to hazel pollen proteins. The presence of these antibodies indicates sensitization, meaning the immune system has recognized the pollen as an allergen. Sensitization does not automatically equal clinical allergy, so results are interpreted alongside symptom history and timing.
Cross-reactivity is a consideration in pollen allergy testing. Individuals sensitized to hazel pollen may also react to pollen from related trees such as birch, alder, and other members of the birch family. Because of this, a clinician may order a panel that includes several tree pollens to clarify the pattern of reactivity.
