Dog Dander Component Panel
The Dog Dander Component Panel measures IgE antibodies to Can f 1, Can f 2, Can f 4, Can f 5, and Can f 6, the major dog allergens linked to allergic rhinitis, asthma, or skin reactions. Results help identify specific proteins causing symptoms, improving accuracy over general dog dander testing. Doctors use this panel to confirm dog allergy, assess severity, and guide personalized management, including avoidance strategies and allergy therapy.

Clinical Significance
Dog Dander Component Panel - Like respiratory allergies, animal allergies pose a significant risk for the development of asthma and rhinitis. Blood IgE tests using whole allergen extracts from dogs provide a sensitive screening method to diagnose pet sensitization. In addition, the dog dander component panel is an IgE blood test using individual recombinant proteins from dogs, improving specificity compared to animal extract assays. Thus, the dog dander component panel helps differentiate an actual dog allergy from a cross-reactive pet allergy.
