Diagnostic Methods
- Traditional Methods: Skin prick tests and single allergen blood tests.
- Molecular Diagnostics: Advanced testing like ALEX² provides detailed insights into allergen sensitivities in a single assay.
Why Choose ALEX²?
- Precision: Identifies specific allergenic proteins with a single test.
- Comprehensive Panel: Analyzes 117 allergen extracts and 178 molecular allergens, making it the most extensive molecular panel available.
- Enhanced Management: Results guide individualized treatment and immunotherapy.
Multiplex vs. Singleplex Testing
- Multiplex (e.g., ALEX²): Tests multiple allergens (295 allergens) simultaneously, offering a comprehensive sensitization profile with faster results.
- Singleplex: Tests one allergen at a time, requiring a stepwise approach.
