Tryptase (s) (Serum (s))

Specimens:	1 ml Serum (s)
Preanalytics/Notes:	To detect an anaphylactic event, it is advisable to take samples within a few hours after the event.
Method:	FEIA
Dimension:	µg/l
Set-up:	Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun
Duration:	3 days
Indication/Significance:	Inconclusive reactions with mast cell involvement within the past hours, e.g. IgE-mediated reactions caused by immediate-type allergens such as insect poison or pharmaceuticals with low sensitivity in the case of reactions to foodstuffs. Differential diagnostic assessment of a suspected shock reaction Elevated basal tryptase level for the diagnosis of severe anaphylaxis risk group (e.g. elevated basal tryptase value and simultaneously anaphylactic reactions to insect bites in the medical history)
Interpretation:	High tryptase levels more… High tryptase levels (> 11.4 µg/l) can indicate a systemic mastocytosis. Rather uncommon causes: Strongly elevated basal tryptase values are found in haematological diseases or also within the scope of a haemodialysis. close
