Imutest to detect allergy, based on IgE antibodies, is intended for all persons who suspect an undesirable allergic reaction to cats. Imutest is used as an aid in the diagnosis of increased sensitivity to this allergen. Only a small blood sample is needed to perform the test, the acquisition of which is hygienic and minimally unpleasant.

In allergy, the immune system reacts to contact with alegen by producing IgE antibodies. Imutest to determine allergy to feline allergens detects elevated levels of protein-specific IgE antibodies from the cat's sweat, saliva and sebum from a blood sample. Cat allergens are among the smallest and most problematic. A higher content of allergens is produced by males due to the greater production of sebum. Cat allergens are spread by microscopic droplets that can float in the air for six hours or more.
