Why AllerCluster?
Clinician Perspective
Dust mites are one of the most widespread allergens present in India and are responsible for a range of allergic disorders from respiratory symptoms to dermatological symptoms.
Various studies have investigated the role of dust mites, their link to allergic diseases and the prevalence of dust mite sensitization in India, with some studies indicating a sensitization rate of greater than 80% for certain sections of the Indian population.
Thus, it is evident that dust mites are one of the most important allergens for the Indian subcontinent. The AllerCluster is an advanced test that has been developed to cater to this need.
By utilizing both purified extracts and molecular components the AllerCluster provides in-depth analysis of a single allergenic source (i.e., Dust mites), thereby providing information on sensitization, cross-reactivity potential, prognostic information, therapeutic direction and the handling of false positivity via CCD inhibition. This allergy test investigates sensitization to dust mites alone while providing more layers of information than standard tests.
