About Timothy Grass (Hay) Allergy Test | Pollen in Berkeley
Timothy grass is a common perennial grass and a major source of pollen allergens. Its pollen is a frequent trigger for seasonal allergic rhinitis and asthma in susceptible individuals.
Timothy grass (Phleum pratense) is widely cultivated for hay and pasture. Its light pollen is easily carried by the wind, leading to high exposure during its pollination season.
Allergic reactions to Timothy grass pollen occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies specific proteins in the pollen as harmful and produces IgE antibodies against them. These antibodies bind to mast cells, and upon re-exposure, trigger the release of histamine and other mediators, causing symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and sometimes wheezing.
The Timothy Grass (Hay) Allergy Test | Pollen uses a blood sample to measure the level of Timothy grass-specific IgE. Results are reported as a numerical value or class, which can help assess sensitization. However, a positive result alone does not diagnose an allergy; it must be interpreted alongside clinical history and symptoms by a healthcare provider.
