Many allergens: Allergy testing can detect: allergies to foods, environmental (pollens of trees, grass, and weeds, dust mite, animal dander, cockroach, fungus), penicillin, local anesthetics, venom (bee, yellow jacket, hornet, wasp, fire ant), and latex. Patch testing can check nickel, gold, fragrance, multiple chemicals etc unfortunately, ige testing is not available for most medications, and dyes/preservatives.
